"I’ll be honest when I say, not everyone is ‘good people’.
It is very hard to find good people, and it is important to support them when we do."

- David Neal | CEO, The Eighth Mile 

WHAT WE DO

We help organisations improve their people, processes, product and profile. 

Our work is shaped by operational experience in both the military and business, where leadership is tested under pressure. We show organisations how to translate leadership principles into practical behaviours that improve how teams think, decide, and act.

NEW CRISIS READINESS GROUP (CRG)

hope is not a strategy

CRG is a team of former military leaders who work shoulder to shoulder with executives that recognise the operating environment ahead is volatile, complex and ambiguous. CRG is for those who understand that difficult periods are not something to react to when they arrive.

leadership is not about you.

It's about trying to write yourself out of a job by empowering others to take over and head towards success.

Our offsite leadership training serves three objectives:

1. Align Decision-Making Across the Organisation:

Set the stage for seamless collaboration and alignment, from strategic to operational and tactical.

2. Create a Cohesive Team Through Shared Values:

Your values act as the glue that binds your team together, fostering a culture of trust, support, and active engagement.

3. Make Room for Team Bonding and Growth:

Allocate time for collective experiences, reward collaborative behaviour, and strengthen bonds to build trust within the group.
