Leadership Team Alignment

Team assessment of values, roles and priorities

Five assessments and one guided document, run by a facilitator. Team rooms are answered anonymously into one team report, the group meets together for the live rooms, and each leader is read at their own role and level. Unlimited attempts.

Who it's for

Any leadership team, its members and whoever runs the sessions: an executive team, a divisional team or a founding team.

Output

Three team syntheses: where the team agrees on priorities and where it only appears to, who owns what and what nobody owns, and how the team works when it is honest
A ninety-day plan written in the room: three priorities with an owner, a first action and the blockers with their mitigations
For the facilitator, each leader's profiles, a Ren summary per leader, an alignment check score per leader, and a trajectory on every room run again at day ninety
Scored against published frameworks: Schwartz's theory of basic human values, reflective commitment inquiry, the Big Five, self-determination theory, team-effectiveness conditions, OKRs, the RACI matrix, Tuckman's stages of group development, Edmondson's psychological safety, SWOT, the TOWS matrix and RICE scoring

How the program works

A six-week facilitator-led program for a leadership team of four to ten, built on Renatus. Two individual assessments, three multi-respondent team assessments and one document room · Six weeks, one room and one live session a week · Unlimited attempts · Run again at day ninety and ongoing.

The rooms

Values Clarification

Assessment

Calibration: role title and level, and the level itself (student or early career, early manager, manager, senior manager, director, C-suite, founder or career-changer).

Behavioural Profile

Assessment

Calibration: role title and seniority, and the team or organisation context and the kinds of decisions they make.

Team Alignment

Assessment

Every leader answers on their own: their role in the team, what they see as the team's top priorities, what success looks like for this team, how the team works together, the biggest challenges facing the team, and specific examples or observations.

Role Clarity

Assessment

Every leader answers on their own: their role title, what they understand their role to own, what they understand it not to own, what they believe their peers own, areas where ownership is unclear, work that gets dropped because no one believes they own it, and handoffs between roles that are breaking.

Strategic Priorities

Framework

Run live in the session, from the team lead's account on the shared screen.

Team Dynamics

Assessment

Every leader answers on their own: their role on the team, how trust shows up or does not, how the team handles disagreement, how accountability lands, how decisions get made, what is true but no one says out loud, and specific examples that show the dynamics.

Why this program exists

A leadership team that believes it is aligned finds out otherwise a quarter late: two functions have built different things, the hardest problem has no owner, and the priority agreed at the last offsite has been quietly forgotten. This program prepares them through private assessment and a live session each week, and the room is the team. Ren takes each leader's view on its own, synthesises the whole team's answers into one report, and builds the ninety-day plan from what the team states in the room.

What you'll achieve

Two private profiles: the values their own choices reveal and the tensions between them, and how they decide, meet challenge and collaborate
Three team syntheses read in the room with the whole team: where the priorities agree, who owns what and what nobody owns, and how the team works when it is honest
A ninety-day plan in the team's own words: three priorities, an owner for each, a first action and the blockers
Unlimited attempts on every room, each scored on the same dimensions and charted against every attempt before it

At a glance

Who it's for: A leadership team of four to ten who work as a team: an executive team, a divisional or regional leadership team, a founding team past its first hires. Every room calibrates to the leader's role and level, so a chief executive and a newly appointed function head are read at their own level in the same program. It is best run when something has changed: a new leader, a strategy reset, a merger, a bad quarter. It assumes the leaders already run their own functions, and measures whether they end up believing the same thing about the whole.

4: Ownership · Role Clarity · Read Silently Dropped and Broken Handoffs; draft the ownership table
5: Committed priorities · Strategic Priorities · Bring the candidate priorities and the ownership table; drive the room
6: How the team works · Team Dynamics · Read What No One Says and Decision Making; run the alignment check

Session by session

Week 1: Revealed values

Put each leader's real values on the table, and name the tensions between leaders before they surface as conflict.

Values Clarification

Week 2: Behaviour under challenge

See how each leader decides, meets challenge and collaborates, and where the team as a whole leans the same way.

Behavioural Profile

Week 3: Shared priorities

Show the team where it agrees on priorities and where it only appears to, and get three candidate priorities on the table in the team's own words.

Team Alignment

Week 4: Ownership

Find the work nobody believes is theirs and the handoffs that break, and put a name against each.

Role Clarity

Week 5: Committed priorities

Write the next ninety days down: three priorities, first actions, blockers with mitigations, and an owner for each.

Strategic Priorities

Week 6: How the team works

Say what nobody was saying about how the team works, agree what changes, and check that every leader can state the plan without the screen.

Team Dynamics

Three team syntheses, two private profiles and a ninety-day plan, over six weeks, measured again at day ninety.
