Align Team
Proven Framework + World-Class Facilitation
Whether you are defining a strategy, improving a process, making a decision, or implementing a change, teams need to align to achieve great results. But complex problems and diverse personalities can make it hard for even the most talented teams.
Relying on a proven framework and masterful facilitation, I transform differences and ambiguities into commitments, accountability, and results.
"Dave is like a strategy whisperer. He is able to gently pull the string and unwind complex challenges. He is then able to help people see and agree. His ability to create alignment is unmatched."
---- Mark Nelson, Senior Vice President, Marqeta
A Proven Framework
We designed the "What it takes to win" framework to meet the diverse needs of Microsoft's top 4% of leaders and have since successfully applied it in medical, human resources, sales, and technology settings.
The framework builds on four questions that methodically hone your direction and align your team.
1. What is Winning? Surprisingly, few teams are really aligned at first.
2. What is the Landscape? Understanding the landscape gives the motivation to change and the insight to solve the right problem.
3. What does it take to Win? The capabilities, processes, and investments must overcome the landscape challenges to build the path to winning.
4. What Actions and Investments Now? Building momentum requires evidence of commitment. It also requires saying "no" to some current priorities.
Facilitation that unlocks your team's power
I design our time to build trust, create ownership, and drive results. I make it easy to speak openly and be understood. And I always anchor back to, "Will this make us win?"
"My team describes Dave as 'Facilitation magic.' His ability to engage, challenge, and keep things moving is truly amazing."
---- Tope Iluyomade, Vice President, Marqeta
