Josh Furnas, Co-Founder at UGLYCASH and Limited Partner at Rally Cap VC, shares one deceptively simple question to assess and improve team alignment.
When alignment breaks down, it often shows up as hesitation, confusion, or low momentum. In this episode of How I PM, Josh shares the exact prompt he uses to uncover both clarity and energy issues: "How excited are you to get to the next destination?"
This question reveals:
1. Whether team members agree on what the next destination actually is
2. Whether they are motivated enough to reach it independently
If excitement is low or answers vary, that is your signal to pause, reset expectations, and reestablish ownership.
