Leadership Simulation Taster Day
Where leadership behaviour meets commercial reality
By Jo Raishbrook, Client Accounts Director
Most leadership development builds awareness.
Very little changes how leaders behave when pressure hits.
The Keystone/MDA Leadership Simulation creates a safe, stretching environment where leaders make real decisions, experience real consequences, and see the direct link between behaviour and business performance.
This invitation-only one day workshop offers personalised leadership development alongside first-hand insight into what your leaders will experience if you commissioned a simulation in 2026-27.

What makes the simulation different
This is not a classroom exercise.
Leaders work in teams to run their organisation through fast-moving commercial, operational, and people challenges. Decisions are made under time pressure, conditions shift, and outcomes unfold in real time.
Expert behavioural coaches observe and challenge in the moment, helping leaders connect their choices and behaviours to the results they create.
Leaders don’t just talk about leadership — they live it.
Why organisations commission leadership simulations
Simulations are used when organisations need more than frameworks or theory — when they need to shift behaviour and build networks and relationships that last beyond the room. They are particularly effective for:
- Strategy, transformation, or culture change
- Stronger commercial and enterprise thinking
- Cross-functional collaboration under pressure
- Leading in ambiguity, not ideal conditions
With us, leadership behaviour is made visible and coachable.
What you’ll experience on the day
Designed for Heads of HR, Heads of L&D, and senior People leaders with commissioning responsibility, the day includes:
- A one-day immersive version of the leadership simulation
- Live, personalised behavioural coaching
- Insight into where simulations sit within wider leadership strategies
You’ll leave having experienced the simulation first-hand, with personalised actions, and understanding why organisations use it to create real change in leadership behaviour.
Plus: every attendee receives a complimentary one-to-one follow-up coaching session with a behavioural coach.
