Your collaborators will fast-acquire insights into neuroscience, psychology and the art of influencing.
Together, they will share a highly immersive leadership experience.
Your collaborators will be thrust into a true case. They will have to make the critical decisions faced by the real-life protagonist, J.P. Mottu, a Swiss executive who finds himself in Colombia, negotiating for the release of one of his employees kidnapped by Marxist-Leninist revolutionaries.
​
They will experience game-changing ideas from the most advanced books and research in various fields.
They will instantly be able to deploy powerful behaviors in their own environment – that's experiential learning at its best!
InsideRisk triggers cognitive breakthroughs by thrusting your collaborators into real cases.
Scientific research shows the effectiveness of experiential learning.
A wide body of research demonstrates that people's capacity to apply their learnings in the long term is drastically increased if their training reproduces the emotional response they would have in the real world. This is why, in every InsideRisk program, we put the participants into the shoes of real-life protagonists.
Your collaborators will retain and master the soft skills that will amplify their leadership impact.

Game-Changing Idea #2
Statistically, the human brain prefers avoiding losses rather than opting for gains. How does this impact your team's decision-making?
In the context of the true case of J.P. Mottu, your colleagues will be called upon to make critical decisions and they will see for themselves how our brain influences our choices. We will introduce and practice different methods aimed at countering biases. And we will dive into some of Daniel Kahneman's fascinating discoveries on framing in neuroscience.
About the author:
Daniel Kahneman is a psychologist and economist notable for his work on the psychology of judgment and decision-making, as well as behavioral economics, for which he won the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.
Game-Changing Idea #3
Can your collaborators defend their choices clearly when they are facing an ethical dilemma?
Your collaborators will be thrust into various ethical dilemmas. They will struggle to come up with the "right" solutions because there are none. In the true case, we will revisit the concept of "imperative categorical" developed by Kant – a great methodology to help us assess whether our actions are ethically defendable.
About the author:
Immanuel Kant (1724 - 1804) was a Prussian philosopher. He is widely regarded as one of the most important philosophers of the modern era.
Game-Changing Idea #4
What is your team's ability to quickly generate ideas under high pressure? Hint: the classic brainstorming will get them nowhere.
Your collaborators will have to think out of box to find solutions to save someone's life. With their peers, they will witness firsthand the limitations of the traditional brainstorming approach and the factors that reduce creativity. We will explore how we can drastically increase creativity through a methodology that author Hal Gregersen has mastered, consisting of brainstorming by questions.
About the author:
Hal Gregersen is a senior lecturer in leadership and innovation at MIT's Sloan School of Management. He has dedicated his career to create cultures of fearless inquiry and to help leaders transform their organizations into innovative powerhouses.
The program features
Prof. George Kohlrieser, one of the world's leading experts in emotional intelligence.
George Kohlrieser is also a hostage negotiator and best-selling author (Hostage At The Table, Care to Dare).

"Best training I have experienced. The technology has been seamless. The scenario allows for you to put yourself in the shoes of the person and react according to instinct AND once given further keys, lesson and information to rethink your initial reactions."
