GC26: Online Leadership Training Game | with Kevin Allen from Planet Jockey

The Planet Jockey Game is based on actual situations and dilemmas drawn from the experience of real CEOs and other senior leaders of Fortune 500 companies. Planet Jockey trains users to become emotionally intelligent leaders by adopting the concept of buoyancy, the phenomenon whereby, as a leader, you float because the people you have inspired believe that you should. They believe in you because you have understood, connected with and ignited the deep desire that lies in their hearts. The Planet Jockey experience is designed specifically for the rising stars of tomorrow and is rooted in successful leadership principles.
