# Start-of-year strategy offsite: January to March 2027

Don't make it next year's problem. Tick the box today.

**Short answer:** The best time for a strategy offsite is in the first ten weeks back after the summer break, while the team is rested and the year is still open. Lock in a date with GetSorted before Christmas, send what you've got, and the drafting happens before you're back. Two days between mid January and March, three pages within five days, and 90 days alongside your team. $25,000.

December: it's next year's problem. January: good intentions. February: back in the inbox. March: it's last year again, and “we just didn't have the time.” The best February and March dates go before Christmas. Lock in your two days now, before everyone else does, and come back from the break to a plan.

Holding a date costs nothing until you confirm. Book by Friday 19 December [DEMO]. Not the one who signs off? Draft the email to them: https://getsorted.valuebull.com.au/resources/#letter

## How does a new year offsite with GetSorted run?

| When | Step | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Today | Lock in and send | Lock in two days and send last year's plan, the values and the board pack |
| December and January | We draft over the break | GetSorted reads everything, drafts the pages and books a short call with each leader before the two days |
| Mid January to March | Two days in the room | Leaders decide the three priorities, the behaviours and who owns what |
| By the end of autumn | Moving by March | Three pages within five days, a page for every leader, then 90 days to the recall test |

## Which dates are available?

Mid January to March 2027, Thursday and Friday each week [DEMO availability]: 14 to 15 Jan, 21 to 22 Jan, 28 to 29 Jan, 4 to 5 Feb and 11 to 12 Feb (sold out); 18 to 19 Feb, 25 to 26 Feb, 4 to 5 Mar, 11 to 12 Mar, 18 to 19 Mar and 25 to 26 Mar (available). Holding a date costs nothing until you confirm. Book by Friday 19 December to hold dates over the break [DEMO].

## Why decide before Christmas?

- **The calendar:** leaders are free in February if the two days go in before the year fills up.
- **The energy:** the first weeks back are when people are most open to a new plan.
- **The prep:** the reading and drafting happen over January, so the two days are spent deciding.

## What does it cost?

$25,000 covers the offsite and the 90 days after it. Ongoing support is optional at $4,000 a month. Book by 19 December and the day 30 check-in is run in person [DEMO offer].

## Questions people ask

### When is the best time to run a strategy offsite?

In the first ten weeks back after the summer break. The team is rested, the year is still open, and there's time for the plan to change what people do before the end of the financial year.

### Can we run it in January?

Yes, from the second week of January, as long as you lock in before Christmas so GetSorted can read and draft before you're back. Those dates go first; most teams pick February, once every leader is back.

### What do we need to do before the break?

Pick your dates, say who's in the room, and send whatever plans, values and reports you already have. About an hour.

### What if we've already planned this year?

Bring it. Nothing gets thrown out. GetSorted cuts what you have down to three pages your people can hold, and tests whether they can say it back at day 90.
