How do I know that Flawless Leadership is an effective technique? Flawless Leadership is a technique developed by military fighter pilots in the unforgiving, zero-tolerance world of aviation. Tested for over a half century, fighter pilots have relied on these techn iques to accomplish their critical and life-threatening missions. For the past 12 years, the fighter pilots at Afterburner, Inc. have taught these techniques to Fortune 500 corporations all over the world.

This high energy and exciting video delivers the content of Flawless Leadership in a broadly applicable manner to include scenarios in both military and daily business settings. The workshop activities conducted by the facilitator have no military themes and are directly applicable to your business setting.
Program includes: DVD and CD with supporting files - Facilitator's Guide, Participant's Guide, PowerPoint slides and handouts, Document Templates for participant use, and Supporting Class Materials.

"The impact that the Afterburner Seminar had was incredible. Not only was it the highest rated segmentof 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. This has never happened before."

"Having been involved with many "team building" type exercises before, I can honestly say yours was the most relevant, practical, entertaining and thought-stimulating program I have ever seen".

"One other point. Our concerns over the Afterburner's theme being "too" macho for the women of the group turned out to be totally unfounded. All of the women in our company really got into the breakout exercises."
