Grammar
'align various constituencies...'?
Hi,
Please have a look at this:
Previously a person was designated as having high potential on the basis of how fast he or she could move and how big he or she could think. High potential still have to be able to demonstrate their capacity for big ideas, but now it is equally important to determine how well a person can see the new reality, align various constituencies to face that reality, and interpret the market and financial flows and link them to the survival of the business.
=> I'm not very clear about the use of 'align various constituencies' here. Does it mean 'get people in different functions in the company to see that reality'?
=> what does 'interpret' mean here?
Thank you very much,
Nessie.

1-- Yes, that seems close. Perhaps the context-- we cannot tell what this person's job or position is-- it might include outside agencies or institutions. 2-- interpret = analyze
