Is everyone Drumming together?

Watch this...

This is an outstanding demonstration of three separate musicians drumming together, in sync, in rythm, and in tune...outstanding!

Now think about this demonstration in the context of business. Are all of the separate departments, teams and people in Concert like this? If so, I would wager your customers are ecstatic, you and your fellow employees love working there and the company is making money hand over fist right now. If you all have different sheet music, I suspect the results are somewhat different from that.

Now go back to the video and imagine every drummer had been drumming something entirely different. I bet you wouldn't have watched 8 minutes of video, your customers and co-workers wouldn't either.
