In-House Team Alignment

 

Turn strategy into shared ownership.

Turn people into your execution engine.

Most leadership teams already have a plan.
What they don’t have is execution.

And the cost of that gap shows up every week in missed deadlines, diluted accountability, frustrated leaders, and teams waiting for direction instead of taking ownership.

Your In-House Team Alignment experience closes that gap by turning strategy into shared ownership and people into your execution engine.

This is not a motivational day.

It is a practical, leadership-led reset designed to eliminate drift, rebuild accountability, and create a clear 90-day execution focus.

Clear Direction

A shared understanding of what matters most and why it matters now.

Real Buy-In

Commitment replaces polite agreement and passive compliance.

Shared Ownership

Priorities move from leaders alone to whole team involvement and inclusion

Immediate Collaboration

A clear 90-day plan that turns focused intention into deliberate action.

The real cost of misalignment

Every quarter you delay fixing alignment costs you more than you think.

It costs you in:

  • Leaders carrying work that should never sit with them
  • Teams waiting for permission instead of taking responsibility
  • Strategy meetings that don’t translate into results
  • Good people quietly disengaging
  • Opportunities missed because execution is slow

You don’t pay for misalignment once.
You pay for it every single month until it’s fixed.

 

"What we built was a community connected for growth, where people wanted to contribute and clients wanted to work with us. As a by-product, performance and efficiency improved and we delivered exceptional results together.

Our Team Alignment workshop provided the platform for the team to discover and implement this."

WHAT IS TEAM ALIGNMENT

A strategic reset for leaders and teams.

A one-day, in-house experience designed to realign people, priorities and performance...

This is not for organisations looking for a feel-good workshop, another away day with no follow-through, a motivational speaker, or a short-term morale boost.

This is for leaders who want their people to take real ownership, to stop firefighting, and to finally translate strategy into execution. If you are ready to turn talk into traction, this experience is:

Designed to:

  • Reconnect people to why the business exists

  • Simplify how priorities are set and actions are taken.

  • Shifts behaviours from compliance to commitment.

  • Turns ambition into practical 90-day execution focus

  • Aligns vision, goals and expectations for everyone.

Ideal when:

  • Growth is stagnant or outpaced structure

  • Communication feels noisy but not effective

  • The same issues keep repeating

  • Leader(s) is carrying too much of the load

  • You want clarity and execution, not firefighting

How It Works

Leadership sets direction and the team owns execution

We use a simple but proven process that bridges strategy and delivery.

Step 1 – Leadership sets the strategic field

Before the session, you and your leadership team select a bank of proven strategies aligned to your goals, challenges and opportunities.

This ensures:

Strategic clarity

 

Commercial realism

 

Focus on what really matters

 

Step 2 – The team prioritises execution

During the session:

Mixed teams review the same strategy bank

Each team selects their top three priorities

Repetition reveals the 90-day execution focus

 This is where alignment turns into ownership.

 

Step 3 – Leaders embed influence and trust

Leaders or influencers are placed within each team, not above them.

They Listen; Shape; Support: Influence without dominating

This removes “us and them” dynamics and builds credibility at every level.

OPTIONAL SUPPORT TOOLS THAT SUPPORT THE ALIGNMENT EXPERIENCE

Tools don’t add value. Outcomes add value. Tools provide outcome methods.

Where useful, we integrate team profiling, 360° leadership feedback and DISC behavioural insight to strengthen alignment.

These tools are never the product.
They are used only to accelerate ownership, trust and execution.

Depending on your objectives, this may include:

Online Team Profiling System

Builds understanding of team dynamics and communication patterns.

360° Leadership Appraisal

Provides focused feedback that strengthens trust and leadership impact.

DISC - “From Me to We"

Helps individuals understand how their style supports team performance.

These tools are always used in service of one outcome:
Stronger alignment and better execution – not data for data’s sake.

Cultural Alignment Diagnostic (Corporate option)

For organisations where cultural alignment and leadership behaviours are key priorities, we can integrate a cultural review using the OCAI framework.

This provides a clear, practical view of:

  • The culture you have today
  • The culture your leaders want to build
  • The gaps that need to be addressed

Used in the Team Alignment process, this ensures that cultural conversations lead to behavioural change and practical action, not just insight.

"Having a Plan is not the most important element of Planning... It is the Process of ‘Planning’ itself, with your team that is most important. In fact it is thee essential element for growth and development because it brings the future into the present by forcing us to ask questions so we can do something about it in the present.”  

Derek Mair

What Happens After Alignment

 

Team Alignment is the reset.
Plan 4 Success system is the rhythm.

For organisations that want this momentum to compound, we support alignment through our quarterly Plan 4 Success execution cycle.

That’s how alignment becomes habit.
Not a one-off.

"Organisations must now tap into this shift from individual to collective consciousness..."

Add NOVODISC Behavioural Profiling to your Team Alignment Experience (Optional)

Teams are the building blocks for an organisations success, yet most teams suffer from a critical interpersonal skills gap that impedes success. And unfortunately, many employers see teamwork as something that should either come naturally to their employees or they will figure it out on the go.

The Behavioural Team Analysis uses powerful and proven DISC psychometrics to build team behavioural profiles for any set of individuals to help understand how they can effectively work together, their individual roles, skills and leadership potential within the team.
