Turn Strategy Into Action
Our Practical Application sessions are where leadership development meets lived experience. Command Tasks test behaviour under pressure; PlanX challenges teams to plan and adapt at tempo; StratNav turns learning into executable strategy. Together, they close the loop between theory and performance.
