"Execute Your Strategy for Success & Survival"
Afterburners Expertise: Leadership • Team Building • Motivation
Fee Range: Call
Location: Georgia
This team of real Fighter Pilots from across the globe will help your team improve execution, and will help you lead more effectively, through our legendary corporate team building, employee team building, corporate team building seminars, motivational keynotes, corporate team building events, leadership seminars, and execution leadership training programs.

We understand how critical it is to have effective leadership skills and to know how to handle yourself and your team in hostile, fast-changing environments every single day.

Our corporate team building programs will not only charge your team with energy and know-how for one day — it will put them in full fighter form every day!
Fighter Pilots get the job done using the Flawless Execution ModelSM. This is a simple, continuous corporate team building and performance improvement process designed to help military aviators win in combat.

Today, companies in all industries, from small to large, are using the Flawless Execution Model to dramatically improve the way their teams perform.

Everyone works together for a common goal and — IT WORKS!

Teamwork, Mutual Support, Cooperation.
These are the goals that all managers and CEOs strive to achieve within their teams. But how do you ensure that after you get the "right people on the bus and in the correct seat" that they have the tools to work "flawlessly" together as a team? The answer lies within our Corporate Team Building Programs.

In today's rapidly-changing business environment, "good" teamwork is not good enough.

The problem in most companies is not too many team building programs — it's that their programs are irrelevant. In many cases, the reason for the team building program is unclear, or there are no rules of conduct for the program — leading to confusion and frustration for the people involved.

Our corporate team building programs are aligned with your corporate needs.

We take your general strategy and focus your teams on how to execute your mission and win! Your teams will be able to apply the same tools and techniques we use - in your own corporate environment immediately.

The tools and techniques your team learns in our corporate team building will not only charge your team with energy and know-how for one day but every day!

Your teams will learn how to excel in every task it undertakes collectively and individually.

Corporate team building programs are highly valued. It is clear that corporations need teams in order to meet the challenges organizations face. But the challenge is bringing together independent individuals and making them work together as one team. By applying our corporate team building your teams will learn how to work together productively and effectively to maximize production.

The beauty of successful team building is that it not only accomplishes the overall goals and objectives of the team, but it also helps meet the individual needs of each team member.

Discover how to Execute Your Strategy.
It’s critical to your success and survival.

If you and your team can't execute a viable strategy, you'll lose control, lose market share, and lose your chance to stage a comeback if you ever need one. Corporate survival, like surviving in combat, depends on execution. We teach the Flawless Execution Model SM, the process used by Fighter Pilots around the world to execute missions when the stakes are high and failure is not an option.

The Power of Flawless Execution
  • Flawless Execution helps you perform more efficiently and effectively in a competitive, rapidly changing, hostile business environment.
  • Flawless Execution is a CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT PROCESS.
  • In just four simple steps your team can improve execution AND stay one step ahead of the competitive rate of change in your industry.
  • Flawless Execution helps you eliminate those painful recurring performance problems and the corporate cynicism that goes with them.
How Flawless Execution Works in Our World as Fighter Pilots.
PLAN. We begin every mission with a detailed plan. We use a highly refined process called "the SIX STEPS TO COMBAT MISSION PLANNING." The plan starts with an objective that is clear, measurable, and achievable — and it supports your company's overall strategy.

BRIEF. Next you communicate the plan. Fighter Pilots call this a "Briefing." It's essential that people on the front lines know exactly what is expected of them. Businesses ignore this — often to their peril.

EXECUTE. Now it's time to execute the mission. Generally, there is one thing that gets in the way of you flawlessly executing your mission. It is called "Task Saturation," which, simply put, is task overload. You and your team have so many competing priorities that you have a meltdown. In the cockpit, this could look like an engine fire during a landing. Alarms go off. Lights flash. But the pilot still must focus on his primary job of landing the plane.

In business, this could be any day in a manager's life when the pace of business is out of control. Managers must manage people, do their own work, and deal with hundreds of items that keep them from their primary business objective. This is Task Saturation and it causes an overwhelming sinking feeling. Overwhelmed people can't function. So they drain themselves and the entire organization and keep you from accomplishing your goals.

Our ultimate goal — YOUR ULTIMATE GOAL — is to execute the perfect mission. As Fighter Pilots, we use highly developed techniques to help minimize Task Saturation in our cockpits. We will teach your team how to develop and use these tools in your own unique working situation as part of your workplace arsenal.

DEBRIEF. The last step is the Debriefing. After each mission, we hold a nameless, rankless Debrief. Each person, without fear of reprimand, rehashes what worked, what did not work, and why both the good and the bad events happened. We then take the key Lessons Learned from the Debrief and apply them to the next plan. The Debrief speeds up learning. It lets us fine-tune the processes that ensure your success.

WIN. Winning itself is not our goal. Our goal is to win by implementing a disciplined management process. We only really win if we have planned carefully, briefed our plan thoroughly, executed our plan with discipline, and debriefed the mission. Luck can lead to these results some of the time, but it can't be easily duplicated every time without a disciplined process. We will give you that disciplined process. In the end, real winning happens when we apply the tools of Flawless Execution — whether in a fighter jet or on your "business battlefield."

Why Flawless Execution Works in YOUR World as a Business Person.
Flawless Execution is dynamic and powerful because it is simple to use, yet it has lasting effects. Once you understand it and you and your team start using it, you have total control over all situations. No, you can't control the competition or predict the future. But you will know how to overcome these threats to maintain the flexibility you need to succeed in your uncertain future. This is the path of Flawless Execution.

In military combat, when lives and $30 million aircraft are at stake, Fighter Pilots may not recall complicated management models. But they will remember what they're taught about Flawless Execution. And so will you and your team.

Like a Fighter Pilot, your world is chaotic. Flawless Execution helps you bring it under control. The results are disciplined, coordinated, and predictable. It works.
