Includes:
  • Two short prep calls with the leader and HR
  • Anonymous pulse to surface issues and goals
  • Full-day workshop with clear outcomes and timings
  • One 30-60 day plan with owners and dates
  • 30-minute follow-up check-in two to four weeks later

    Typical agenda highlights: facts on the table, roles and decision rights map, meeting map, decision board, 30-60 day plan.

    Deliverables: decision rights map, meeting map, 30-60 day plan, simple scorecard.

    Expected shift: faster decisions, shorter meetings, clear owners by week two.
Focus - Half day
Best for: one specific issue with tight scope, such as decision hygiene, meeting design, or role clarity between two functions.
Includes:
  • One 30-minute scoping call
  • Half-day session targeted on a single outcome
  • A short follow-up call within two weeks
    Focus options:
  • Decision hygiene and a one-page decision log
  • Meeting redesign that halves overrun
  • Role clarity between two teams with a clean RACI

    Deliverables: targeted artefact for the issue, plus a 30-day action list.

    Expected shift: visible improvement on the chosen issue inside 30 days.
Series - Three sessions
Best for: teams that need to build, test and lock new rhythms over time.
Structure: three half days over six to eight weeks, with light coaching between sessions.
Session flow:
  1. Build: trust reset, roles and decision rights, meeting map, first 30-day plan
  2. Test: review signals, fix snags, deepen ownership, refine cadence
  3. Lock: confirm what holds, agree standards, set the next 60-day plan

    Between sessions: short check-ins, tracker reviews, nudges for owners.

    Deliverables: full artefact set, scorecard updates, final 60-day plan.

    Expected shift: sustained cadence, cleaner handoffs, fewer bottlenecks that stick beyond the series.

f.a.q

Twelve works best for one room. For larger groups we split into two rooms with aligned outputs, then merge decisions at the end.
Yes. We agree outcomes first, then tune the exercises to your context. Light tailoring is included.
Yes. A keynote in the morning and a workshop in the afternoon works well to move from message to method.
Yes. We adjust pacing and tools for screens and keep exercises simple and focused.
It often does. We keep it respectful, surface the real issue, and turn it into a clear agreement or action.
The owner map, meeting map and scorecard do most of the work. A light series or leader coaching helps lock the new rhythm.
Set per scope and format. Clear quote after the alignment call. Invoicing in GBP, USD or EUR.
If the date is free, we can prepare within a tight window. We confirm feasibility on the alignment call.
