The Fighter Pilot Mindset

Do you sometimes feel like your business (or life!) is running you, and you’re on the ride? We call that “falling behind the airplane”. You want to be ahead of the airplane – driving your life and business in the right direction! One-step ahead, making great decisions, becoming the person or team you always knew you could be.

Task Saturation

We’ve all experienced it! We’ll help explain what to do when you have too much on your plate and you’re lacking the time, tools, or resources to achieve success.

Flawless Leadership

Whether you’re wanting a keynote, team building and development or a training program- the approach remains the same. Their keynote will introduce you to the FLEX Methodology and mindset, whilst more immersive programs will allow you to practice and experience the benefits of FLEX first-hand.

To help facilitate those “a-ha!” moments, Afterburner customises their programs to ensure they are tailored to your strategic objectives to deliver a “how to get things done better, faster and with greater success” message to your team.

First, you meet your fighter pilot and learn what it takes to be one and how Flex can assist you in accelerating your own success. Your pilot focuses on everything from highly skilled commentary, awe-inspiring and compelling stories to multimedia for you to become fully immersed into their world of a fighter pilot. They might have you holding on to the edge of your seat, but most importantly, they help your people understand that success is a mindset, not a talent.

They remind you that being consistently successful is possible if we all understand the common human performance traits that get in our way and understand the simple way to manage them. Once you understand a little more about the fighter pilots secret to success, Boo and his team will take you on the FLEX journey and show how it can be applied to your life, your team and your organization.

Key highlights of the program include:

  • The importance of aligning strategy and day to day goals, with clarity and total accountability
  • PLAN – How to plan collaboratively and set realistic goals
  • BRIEF – The importance of communication when executing a plan or strategy
  • EXECUTE – Highlighting the performance draining effects of task saturation and how to prioritise, focus and achieve 300% more in a day or “3X” your team.
  • DEBRIEF – Improve performance, enhance mentoring and deliver change rapidly through a simple meeting focused on learning from common mistakes and errors in a “nameless and rankless” environment.

Program Manager, Sprint
Even four months later, people are still talking about Afterburner seminars. Your portion of the meeting really had a big impact on our managers. Plan, brief, execute and debrief are terms we hear around the office now. I feel we have built a great working relationship and I look forward to our next project together.
Director of Management Development, Home Depot
The impact that the Afterburner seminar had was incredible. Not only was it the highest-rated segment of our annual meetings, but our store managers have begun to apply what they learned on a day to day basis. The Afterburner seminar received a standing ovation after every one of its programs.
Senior Vice President, ditech.com
I can honestly say that the seminar significantly exceeded expectations and was the highlight of our meeting. We enjoyed the fact that the seminar was delivered in a very professional manner, and had the right blend of pertinent business focus in a light-hearted and fun way.
Vice President of Leadership Development, Bank of America
The Afterburners Team obviously spent an incredible amount of prep time getting to know our business and our competition. This enabled them to walk and speak our language, which earned instant credibility with our senior leadership team. It opened the door to some great discussions around improving how we work together – the result of which has already made us a more effective team.
