Leadership and team development
Turn your investment in leadership development into measurable impact
Leadership programs build leaders’ skills, and they are an important investment. Strategic alignment carries those skills into your organization’s real priorities, and measures the impact before the consultation and 90 days after.
From skill to execution
Leaders come back from programs with new skills, then meet different priorities in every department. Strategic alignment brings the organization’s own leaders together with their top leader around their priorities, so skills become shared work with visible results.
We work inside your organization with its leaders, and deliver outputs that are followed up and measured.
What the development and HR team gains
- Learning transfer: what leaders learned becomes agreed priorities
- Measurable impact: we measure the impact with the leader or a delegate before the program and 90 days after
- Stronger engagement: leaders know their role in the organization’s priorities
- Evidence for management: an executive summary showing what changed
For leadership programs and the non-profit sector
Leadership programs build a generation of leaders across the public, private and non-profit sectors. Strategic alignment complements them with practical steps: it helps participants carry what they learned back to their organizations, by agreeing with their leaders on priorities and responsibilities. For associations and non-profit foundations, alignment brings the board and the executive team together on the organization's mission and priorities.
How we work with programs and non-profits
- An alignment session that complements a leadership program
- The Strategic Alignment Index for participants and their organizations
- A full consultation for a non-profit with its board and executive team
High-potential leaders and succession
In later rounds: a second line that shares the same understanding
After the first round with middle managers, the organization can nominate its high-potential leaders to join later rounds, so they share the same understanding early with their leaders, and the organization builds a strategic pipeline of high-potential leaders.
What the organization gains
- A ready second line that reads the organization's priorities as its leaders do
- Smoother transitions when positions change
- A strategic pipeline of high-potential leaders
From clarity to innovation
Passion is not requested. It is built.
People do not innovate because someone asked them to. They innovate when they understand where the organization is heading, see the effect of their work, and feel they are part of the decision. That is what strategic alignment builds: shared clarity among leaders becomes ownership, ownership becomes passion, and passion becomes ideas that get implemented.
Clarity
Every leader knows the agreed priorities and their role in them.
Ownership
Every leader takes part in shaping the solutions, so each one owns the results.
Innovation that happens
The team’s ideas go into the executive summary with their expected return and the support they need, and a leader inside the organization follows them for 90 days.
