I will employ my training leading T-groups to help set a framework for an ongoing approach your team can use once the facilitated training is completed.

Team Strategy & Planning offsites
Great companies and teams have two dominant consistencies. First, they have shared values – “people like us do things like this,” as Seth Godin has said. Second, they have a clear cut plan set to achieve a solid and clear mission. Yet, many leaders have loose plans, unclear plans, plans with too many goals or no plan at all. Some do not even have an expressed Mission. Whether you seek to clearly define your company mission and vision, create quarterly or annual plans, write your GTM strategy or want to lay down scale plans to meet your BHAG, I will successfully design and lead your team to deliver a realistic, inspirational and actionable plan that can be clearly communicated, operationalized and achieved.
