Cockpit Simulation Lab –
Enhance Strategic Thinking Skills
Executives and Pilots alike are at risk of falling into decision-making traps - resulting in really poor outcomes. In the Simulation Lab, Executives train the systematic application of Key Leadership Principles from the Cockpit - to avoid these pitfalls.
The methodology follows the cycle of experience-based learning. Participants act as Commercial Pilots and learn to master critical decision-making situations in the cockpit
During the flight simulations, participants are confronted with decision-making problems in a commercial airline cockpit. Strategic thinking and collaboration across boundaries are key to tackling the challenge
The Simulations are followed by detailed debriefing. Participants receive a systematic review and analysis of their team and individual decision making performance from professional Flight Captains
The Simulation Labs are conducted by commercial Flight Captains - acting as Senior Examiners on behalf of Civil Aviation Authorities. The Captains have a long-term experience with Senior Executive Training
Turning a seemingly
dry topic into an exciting learning experience
In few other industries are Compliance & Integrity as crucial as in Aviation. In this learning experience, Participants get a deep insight into how the topic is put into practice in the cockpit - straightforward and hands-on
Participants work through the core principles of Compliance & Integrity in the Cockpit supported by Flight Captains. The cockpit perspective represents a "reframing" of the seemingly dry topic in the perception of the target group
Real life examples from Commercial Aviation provide an emotional touch and turn a seemingly dry topic into an exiting learning experieence. Participants experience a sustainable anchoring of the learning content
A strong Participant Activation promotes a positive Compliance & Integrity Mindset - without appearing dogmatic or bossy
How to build a
High Performance Culture
Cockpit Crews are essentially "high-performance pop-up teams". They are grouped randomly - but must work together instantly and possibly handle unforeseen, highly critical situations. Participating Leaders learn how this works smoothly
Using real-life examples from the Flight Deck, Participants work out Leadership Principles that facilitate a High Performance Culture
Participants work in teams to evaluate the Cockpit Crew of an accident flight and develop alternatives on how the Pilots' Performance could have been improved
In the reflection session, Participants identify Leadership Behaviors that best fit their environment to establish a high-performance culture
