Alignment Accelerator

Step 2: Transform

Alignment Accelerator

Install the Decision-Making Infrastructure Your Team Needs to Scale

8 weeks to transform how your leadership team operates—with measurable results by Week 4.

Timeline: 8 Weeks + 60 Days Follow-Up

The Problem This Solves

Your leadership team is capable. The individuals are strong. But somehow, decisions that should take days take weeks. Rework keeps happening because teams weren’t aligned on priorities. You spend hours in meetings that exist only to create alignment.

The problem isn’t your people. It’s your operating system.

You’ve outgrown the informal coordination that worked when you were smaller. But you haven’t yet built the decision-making infrastructure that scales with growth.

The Alignment Accelerator installs that infrastructure in 8 weeks.

What Makes This Different

This is not training.

Training teaches skills to individuals. We install systems that change how your team operates together.

This is not coaching.

Coaching develops individual leaders. We develop the operating rhythm that makes your leadership team function as a unit.

This is an operating system installation.

You leave with frameworks, decision rights, and coordination mechanisms that work whether you’re in the room or not.

The 8-Week Program

Weeks 1-2: Foundation & Baseline

  • Leadership team assessment (if not completed via Alignment Assessment)
  • Establish baseline metrics: decision velocity, rework rate, alignment meeting time
  • Identify the 3-5 specific patterns creating the biggest drag
  • Align on program outcomes and success criteria

Weeks 3-4: Decision Architecture

  • Build your Decision Rights Matrix: who decides what, when escalation is required
  • Install the Priority Trade-Off Framework: how to resolve competing priorities without escalating
  • Practice with real decisions your team is currently facing

Weeks 5-6: Cross-Functional Coordination

  • Implement Cross-Functional Handoff Protocols: how work moves between teams cleanly
  • Build the Conflict Resolution Framework: how disagreements get resolved without executive intervention
  • Mid-point reassessment: measure progress against baseline

Weeks 7-8: Sustainability & Scale

  • Install the Alignment Cadence: what meetings stay, what meetings die, what rituals sustain the system
  • Document and codify frameworks for new leader onboarding
  • End-point assessment: quantify gains against baseline
  • Create 90-day sustainability plan

60-Day Follow-Up (Finish Strong Friday)

The hardest part isn’t installing new systems—it’s maintaining them under pressure. Your 60-day FSF follow-up includes:

  • Bi-weekly check-ins on framework adoption
  • Troubleshooting when old patterns resurface
  • Accountability to ensure gains stick

Typical Results

By Week 4

  • 4-5 hours/week recovered per leader in alignment meeting time
  • Decision velocity improvements visible (21 days → 5 days in one case)
  • First cross-functional conflicts resolved without executive intervention

By Week 8

  • Engineering rework rates reduced (28% → 9% in one case)
  • 80% of cross-functional conflicts resolved without executive involvement
  • Clear decision rights documented and practiced
  • Sustainable cadence established

By Day 90

  • Frameworks fully integrated into operating rhythm
  • New patterns stable under pressure
  • Foundation set for ongoing compounding gains

Investment & Timeline

Timeline: 8 weeks of active engagement + 60 days of FSF follow-up

Time Commitment: 60 minutes per week per leader, plus individual coaching sessions

ROI Context: Most teams are losing $280K-$420K annually per senior leader to alignment overhead. Program investment typically delivers 8-10x ROI in year one through recovered capacity and reduced rework.

What Leaders Say

“We thought we needed better communication. Turns out we needed decision infrastructure. The Accelerator gave us frameworks that actually changed how we work—not just how we talk about working.”

— COO, 220-person SaaS Company

“The ROI math was obvious after Week 4. We’d already recovered more in executive time than we invested in the program.”

— VP Engineering, 150-person Fintech
