2 Day | The Pressure Test

The Pressure Test is a demanding two-day immersion created to expose limits and strengthen resilience under controlled challenge. Participants engage in physically and mentally taxing exercises designed to test composure, teamwork, and endurance. Full effort is mandatory. The outcome is expanded capacity, stronger stress tolerance, sharpened self-awareness, and a deeper understanding of personal limits and how to operate beyond them.

7-Day | The Reset

The Reset is a focused seven-day intervention built to restore structure and eliminate drift quickly. Participants complete guided daily actions aligned to defined standards, concluding with a coaching session to assess gaps and direction. Commitment and full participation are expected. Individuals benefit from renewed discipline, tightened focus, improved momentum, and a clear recalibration of personal expectations moving forward with measurable accountability.

30-Day | The EDGE Protocol

The EDGE Protocol is a structured 30-day pathway designed to install discipline and accountability into daily life. Participants follow weekly objectives supported by four 1:1 coaching sessions and measurable tasks. Execution and honest reporting are required throughout. Those who commit can expect stronger decision-making, consistent output, improved self-management, and standards that hold under pressure, allowing you to think more, do more, and achieve more in life and your career.

NOT A WORKSHOP.
A PRESSURE TEST.

Most teams never find out how they perform under pressure — until it matters. PLANEX Live changes that.

​

Built for teams who lead people, make decisions under pressure, and need to perform when it counts. Corporate organisations, professional sports teams, small businesses. If your team operates in an environment where cohesion, communication and clarity matter — this session will show you exactly where you stand.

​

A live, facilitated two-hour session delivered in-person or remotely via Zoom. Built on real military planning methodology. Facilitated by a former covert British military operator with 35 years of operational experience across 100+ countries.

​

Remote delivery. Global reach. No compromise on the standard.

​

Nothing else like it in the USA.

WHAT IS PLANEX LIVE

"Most teams train together.
Few teams plan together under pressure."

WHAT PLANEX LIVE TESTS

SIX THINGS THAT STAND BETWEEN YOUR TEAM AND MISSION SUCCESS.

01

LEADERSHIP

Leadership under pressure is not a trait — it's a skill. PLANEX Live puts your leaders in a position where their decisions matter, their communication is exposed, and their ability to direct a team under a ticking clock is measured against a standard built in one of the world's most demanding operational environments. You will see exactly who leads and who waits to be led.

02

RESILIENCE

Resilience is what keeps a team functional when the plan meets reality. When the scenario shifts, the clock is running and the pressure spikes — how your team responds in that moment defines everything that follows. PLANEX Live doesn't let teams reset. It holds the pressure and measures how long your team can perform inside it before something gives.

03

ACCOUNTABILITY

Accountability is easy when things go well. PLANEX Live creates the conditions where things don't — where time runs short, plans change and someone has to own the outcome. The exercise exposes who takes responsibility, who deflects it, and where the gaps in your team's accountability culture actually sit. No hiding place. No excuses. Just performance.

04

COHESION

Cohesion isn't built in a boardroom — it's revealed under pressure. When the clock is running and every person in the group has to contribute or the plan fails, you find out quickly how well your team actually functions together. PLANEX Live stress-tests the bonds between people, the trust in the plan, and the collective will to deliver when it counts.

05

DECISION MAKING

Most poor decisions aren't made by people who don't know the answer. They're made by people who ran out of time, lost clarity under pressure, or failed to communicate the plan to those who needed to execute it. PLANEX Live replicates exactly those conditions — and forces your team to make real decisions, under real pressure, with real consequences for the outcome.

06

MINDSET

How your team approaches pressure, uncertainty and the unknown defines every other outcome in the exercise. PLANEX Live reveals the mindset your team actually operates with — not the one they think they have. It exposes fixed thinking, surfaces those who adapt, and shows leadership exactly what needs to change before it costs them where it matters most.

THE SESSION

FOUR PHASES.
TWO HOURS.

01

15-20 MINUTES

THE BRIEF

Glen opens the session and sets the operational context. One theme, one clear standard, one direction of travel. This is not an introduction — it is a briefing. Delivered from 35 years of experience in environments where clarity at the start determined everything that followed. By the time The Brief is complete, your team knows exactly what is expected, what is at stake, and what they will be held to for the next two hours.

02

20-25 MINUTES

THE THINK TANK

Glen asks. Your team answers. A facilitated discussion built around the session theme that surfaces the gaps in your team's thinking before the pressure is applied. Most teams don't see it coming. The questions are deliberate, the discussion is revealing, and by the time The Think Tank closes your team already knows where they are vulnerable. That awareness is exactly what PLANEX is designed to test.

03

45 MINUTES

THE PLANEX

The planning exercise runs. Timed. Pressurised. One scenario from the PLANEX library is issued and the clock starts. Your team plans, communicates and delivers their solution under real pressure with no run-throughs and no safety nets. Glen observes everything — how the team organises, who leads, how decisions are made and how the plan is communicated. Nothing is missed. Nothing is glossed over.

04

15-20 MINUTES

THE DEBRIEF

Glen delivers his assessment based on what he observed during the exercise. Specific, direct and actionable — built on the same debrief methodology used in operational environments where honest feedback was not optional. This is where the real value of PLANEX Live lands. Open Q&A, clear takeaways and a set of actions your team can apply immediately after the session ends.

WHO IT'S FOR

BUILT FOR TEAMS WHO LEAD UNDER PRESSURE.

CORPORATE TEAMS

L&D budgets exist for exactly this. A 2-hour remote session that genuinely challenges your teams is a fraction of the cost of a full offsite — and delivers results you can measure. Built for organisations serious about performance and cohesion, not just development hours.

SPORTS TEAMS

Cohesion, communication, and decision-making under pressure are not soft skills — they are performance variables. PLANEX Live brings operational methodology into the sporting environment, stress-testing how a group functions when the clock is running and the stakes are real.

SMALL BUSINESS

Small teams feel pressure differently — fewer people, fewer margins for error, more at stake. PLANEX Live is accessible, actionable, and built for the reality of running a business where every person has to perform and have input into the task. No jargon. No filler. Just results.
