Description
What if I told you that one set of thinking tools could help you failure your organization and future-proof your career; could I interest you in something like that? The toolkit in question is called Red Teaming, and it’s a powerful set of questions and processes imported from its origins in the military to increasingly widespread use today in business and of course management consulting. You may know this idea from other terms that describe its philosophical approach, from “alternative analysis”, “playing devil’s advocate” or conducting a “pre-mortem.” No matter the name, the concepts that underpin Red Teaming are incredibly valuable - and worth getting to know. Tune in to this episode to learn how to plan for success by anticipating the worst.
