In attempting to achieve high performance levels within the enterprise, the manifestation of aligned commitment is a very desirable goal to aim for. It is instrumental in the realisation of the full potential of organisational members and in focusing their efforts and performance on the strategic vision of the enterprise. A model, which introduces, describes, and integrates the various processes, steps and actions required in the development of aligned commitment, is suggested. Guidelines, derived from research findings as well as experience gained in the actual implementation of the various constituent elements of the model, are supplied. These guidelines should assist in the successful establishment and maintenance of a value-driven, aligned commitment culture within any enterprise.
