The Aligned Team Framework
Based on decades as an internal Organisational Coach in Agile Environments, my work with teams is built around

Common Team Challenges
Teams are so caught up in the day-to day there's little space to think strategically or creatively
Leader is overwhelmed and feels like a bottleneck
Team isn't taking enough ownership or initiative
Goals aren't fully shared and roles overlap or have unclear boundaries
Delegation is patchy and decisions take longer than they should
Different teams operating in silos with little cross-functional collaboration
Friction beneath the surface tension that either shuts conversations down or spills into unproductive conflict
Internal dynamics are affecting performance and starting to ripple out into the wider organisation
How The Aligned Team Framework Helps
Based on four fundamental pillars of Team Development - The Aligned Team Framework includes targeted interventions in each of these areas. Since no two teams are the same, the order of these interventions might change depending on the most important challenges to solve first.
Purpose
Why the team exists and what success looks like
Structure
How decisions get made, roles are owned, and the team is organised
Collaboration
How people communicate, handle conflict and build trust
Culture
The behaviours and norms that define who you are as a team
