Fighter pilots, Navy Seals, Green Berets, and other elite military professionals are well known for their outstanding success on the battlefield. There is a reason for that unparalleled level of achievement - the process we use every day, week, month, and year to improve and increase our likelihood of success.

This session will provide the tools, techniques, and procedures that elite, high-performing teams utilize to achieve results in volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environments.

The Fighter Pilot Performance Cycle is an agile methodology that allows teams to create cohesive strategies and plans, focus on achieving results while mitigating task saturation, and hold a debriefing session that prioritizes learning and growth toward our next operation. This process has been translated to the civilian world, and Finch has successfully shared and implemented this methodology with hundreds of clients worldwide.
