Risk Posture Alignment is the act of ensuring that organizational behavior matches stated intent when risk exceeds tolerance.

It is where insight becomes action.

This domain answers:

• Do we recognize when risk is unacceptable?

• Do we respond in a way that reflects our values and commitments?

• Do priorities change when they should?

Many organizations drift not because they ignore risk—but because they fail to act decisively when signals appear.

Misalignment shows up as:

• Known issues that linger

• Conflicting priorities

• Escalations without resolution

• Values that are stated but not reflected in action

Strong Alignment prevents silent drift.

• Clear risk tolerance and thresholds

• Deliberate prioritization when tradeoffs arise

• Timely escalation and response

• Follow-through that reinforces trust
