PACT ONLINE
PRODUCTIVE, ALIGNED, CO-CREATIVE TEAMS

We don’t always have the luxury to travel to see each other in person, mainly when we work together in a distributed team and we are under great pressure to deliver outstanding results fast. 

This is why our PACT ONLINE is here. 

Our PACT ONLINE team performance acceleration program supports your team to come together regardless of where they are on the face of the Earth (and beyond). Thus your team members get to clarify their vision and needs as a team, and find the strategy and processes to deliver great results together without losing their minds or killing each other in the process 😊. 

You should consider our PACT ONLINE team development program when: 

1. Your team is in a pickle (see various team challenges below).
2. Your people are distributed all over the country / region / world. 
3. You cannot afford to travel and to put aside several days for an in-person team offsite / retreat. 
4. You would like to document the team development work through recorded online sessions. 
5. You know that your team development is not a one-off process, but a process that will take some time, which is why it’s better to do it in several instalments online. 

If your team is under pressure to perform, but you don’t have the luxury of an in-person team offsite or retreat happening over multiple days OR you know that your team development will be longer-term, then we encourage you to consider our team performance acceleration program PACT ONLINE. 

Think long-term team development in multiple sessions easy to document = think PACT ONLINE.

Our team performance acceleration program PACT ONLINE is incredibly flexible. 

This is why the final shape of our program is always tailor-made to serve the specific needs of your team. Our program will be designed only after thorough discussions with you, the team leader, and the team as such. 

Here are the ingredients that we may use during our work together:  

1. TEAM NEED MAPPING: Conversations on the needs of your team with you, the team leader / your team / your key stakeholders / the program sponsor etc. 
2. TEAM DIAGNOSIS: A 360° assessment on your team’s current level of mastery in the area where you need them to deliver high performance. 
3. PROFESSIONAL TEAM DEVELOPMENT INTERVENTIONS: Online team coaching, team mentoring, skill training, team process facilitation, and a reflective strategic thought partnership. 
4. PROGRESS EVALUATIONS: Multiple evaluations throughout the project to make sure we are on the right track, and a final project evaluation including recommendations for future steps. 

Why don’t you tell us more about your team’s specific context and needs, and we will offer you the best tools and solutions to support your team towards high performance? 

If at all possible, we prefer:

• The team development conducted via Zoom.
• We have no problem recording the team development sessions.
• Programs can last from a minimum of 10 hours to 100 online team development hours and more.

The VORNICA® signature team performance acceleration program PACT ONLINE is priced to respect your team and company’s current economic realities, and the value and quality of the services provided by us to you and your team.

Each program price is tailor-made.

Your final investment will depend on:

• The final number of people in your team joining the program.
• The intensity of the program: team assessment needs, number of development sessions, special services such as team shadowing etc.
• The urgency of the program: if the program needs to be deployed in less than three months etc.
• Other special requirements coming from you, your team and your company leadership.

• Take a look at the cost of your fluctuation. How much would it cost you to replace three-four members of your team that might leave unless you start operating and performing better as a team?
• Consider the cost of absenteeism, low engagement, and low performance. Even if your people stay, but they don’t perform at their best, this will cost you and your organization way beyond your expectations.
• Add the cost of burnout and medical care for exhausted people.
• Include the cost of managing drama. Calculate the volume of time spent by the team leader on managing unnecessary conflict, drama, and negativity in the team. Research says that it usually stands between 40% and 80% in highly dysfunctional teams.
• Take into account missed opportunities.  While your team is struggling to perform, the world is moving ahead, and you will have lost numerous opportunities on the way.

The program includes:

1. 20 hours of direct, in-person team coaching, mentoring, and facilitation.
2. 20 hours of team building activities, relaxation, and togetherness.
3. 3 individual 60-minute sessions of individual executive mentoring / coaching for the team leader.
4. 4 hours of program preparation with the team retreat leader / sponsor.
5. 3 hours of virtual follow-up with the whole team 30 and 90 days after the retreat.
