Capabilities We Test
-
Role Clarity & Decision Rights: Who decides what, and when?
-
Escalation and Handoffs: When does a problem become an incident, and who owns it then?
-
Communications under uncertainty: Public affairs, internal efficacy, and importantly - what to say (and what not to say) when.
-
Coordination across teams: Operations, people managers, comms, leadership, all working as one system.
-
Situational Awareness: What you know, what you don't, and how to fill the gaps quickly.
-
Team strengths in action: A quick skill check shows who’s best at what so the team can play to strengths and coordinate smarter.
-
Recovery Planning: What back to stable actually looks like.
How it Works
Fast to book. Custom to your risks. Built for real-world decision pressure.
1) Quick Context Call (30 minutes)
We learn about your environment, your team structure, and what you want to stress-test.
2) Skill Assessment & Scenario Creation
Participants do a short pre-assessment (your “character sheet”) so we can design a scenario that fits your team and reveals how strengths combine under pressure.
3) Live Simulation
We run the scenario with realistic injects and time pressure. Outcomes reflect both skill and uncertainty, because even great plans don’t always survive contact with reality.
4) Debrief & After-Action Plan
You get a robust debrief, clear strengths and gaps, and a practical plan to close the gaps at a systems level. Your team's performance improves long-term, not just for the day.
