Aligning Teams with Strategy: Parallel 1:1 Journeys One Strategic Goal For Teams
Aligning Teams with Strategy is a leadership development program that combines individualised one-to-one journeys with a shared strategic aim. It is designed for leaders selected because their roles directly influence a strategic priority—so development is not happening in isolation, but in service of where the organisation is going.
Grounded in The Centering Force™ Method, the program strengthens both Being (inner clarity, values, mindset) and Doing (execution, leadership behaviours, results) while keeping a clear line of sight between personal growth, team needs, and strategic outcomes.
Leaders move through parallel, tailored development journeys at the same time, with a unique accountability design: they become one another’s stakeholders. In that stakeholder role, participants support progress through structured feedback, encouragement, and honest reflection—helping each other see what “next-level leadership” truly requires in the context of the strategy. This creates a transparent development culture where growth is reinforced not only by coaching, but also by peer accountability and shared commitment to the strategic goal.
The program is more tailored by design: the team agrees on the overall length based on the strategic goal, context, and readiness, starting with a minimum of 7 one-to-one sessions per leader. In addition, the journey includes a kickoff workshop to set shared direction, align expectations, and connect each leader’s development focus to the strategy, and a final workshop to integrate learning, review progress across the group, and align next steps—so individual growth translates into sustained team alignment.
When key people across a team are developed together—each with attunement to their individual needs, the team’s dynamics, and the “why” behind the strategy—the impact extends beyond individual capability. The program becomes a practical mechanism for culture change: alignment deepens, leadership standards rise, and new ways of working take root one centred leader at a time.
“The coaching program Minoush conducted was a life saver. Synergies between the team, alignment between the teams, delivering to the client objectives were the main outputs of the program. If we consider Awe as one of the successful Agencies currently in the market, I believe that Minoush’s program is one of the main contributors to what is happening now.”
