Alignment offsite

A one-day offsite to reset your team, refine your direction, and realign around what matters.

What it is:

The Alignment Offsite is a one-day, high-impact experience designed to bring your team back into sync - intellectually, culturally, and operationally.

It blends clear-headed strategy with embodied experiences in a beautiful location that gets people out of their day-to-day fog and into real, meaningful momentum.

Why now?

Most teams are misfiring, and not because they’re not talented.

They’re overwhelmed, misaligned, and stretched thin. Hybrid working has blurred boundaries, fractured communication, and frayed culture. Leadership is reactive. Strategy feels disjointed. And even high-performing teams are stuck in cycles of burnout, overthinking, and under-connecting.

This offsite is built to fix that.

What happens

We guide your team through strategic mapping sessions, real-time diagnostics to uncover misalignments, and a series of honest (but non-cringey) exercises that strengthen connection and clarity. The experience balances focused, outcome-driven workshops with space to breathe - both mentally and physically. We close with practical integration plans to ensure the alignment lasts well beyond the offsite. No death-by-PowerPoint, no awkward trust falls. Just a sharp, energising, and genuinely enjoyable experience with long term results.

The approach

We explore your teams challenges through the lens of The Alignment Theory. We believe organisations also have a mind, body and spirit. If we align them individually and collectively, we will get you firing on all cylinders.

Mind = Systems, Processes, office work

Body = Working environment, physical work

Spirit = Culture, meaning, connection (internal & external)

Who it’s for

This is for leaders who:

+ Leadership and executive teams navigating change, growth, or strategic reset or recalibration.

+ Co-founders who want to realign vision and clarify roles

+ Project or business units that feel siloed, misaligned, or burnt out

+ Organisations scaling fast and needing to embed culture to grow

+ Remote Teams who need to come together to regroup and align
