The Debrief Imperative

book cover for The Debrief ImperativeToday's business environment presents challenges to any organization unable to implement strategic business planning tools. Our current business climate resembles combat, and without the Flawless Execution℠ model in place, no organization has the required experience needed to rapidly adapt to change like elite military professionals do. Drawing from this culture of adaptation, a powerful organizational model based on continuous improvement and strategic business planning was created: Flawless Execution℠.

For the last 50 years, elite U.S. fighter pilots have discovered and used a secret to continuous improvement - a tool every enterprise can benefit from. This is the disciplined and effective debrief....something most companies talk about but don't know how to do. Whether it's called reflection, feedback, or postmortem - debriefing after every project or event is not an option - it's an imperative!

Authors Murphy and Duke succinctly provide not only why to debrief, but how to conduct an effective debrief. They call it the Stealth Debrief process...providing a simple means of analyzing root causes while also yielding actionable lessons and addressing organizational weaknesses while empowering and reinforcing strengths.

The Debrief Imperative is a culmination of over a decade of teaching and practice in Global 1000 organizations. Keep your company fighter-pilot agile in any turbulent or changing market. Accelerate performance . . . learn and leverage this secret tool to organizational success.
