The Problem

Your leadership team has
alignment gaps they don't know exist.

Most executive teams think they're aligned. They've sat through the same all-hands, read the same strategy deck, attended the same offsites. But when it's time to make decisions — about priorities, resources, direction — the cracks show up.

Miscommunication disguised as disagreement. Misaligned assumptions presented as strategy. Unspoken conflict that never makes it to the agenda.

The cost isn't obvious. It shows up as slow decisions, duplicated effort, teams receiving conflicting signals from different leaders, and talented people quietly deciding to stop trying.

"Most leadership training teaches concepts. The Maxwell Leadership Game reveals character — including the gaps your team didn't know they had."

The Maxwell Leadership Game creates a psychologically safe environment — structured like a game, felt like a conversation — where your leaders can surface those gaps, build genuine trust, and leave with shared language and commitments that actually stick.

The Experience

How the session works

01

Pre-Session Executive Briefing

Before your team arrives, Zac meets with your key stakeholder to understand your team dynamics, current challenges, and the outcomes you want to walk away with. This shapes how the session is facilitated.

02

The Leadership Game (3–4 Hours)

Your executive team plays through a structured series of scenarios, discussions, and challenges drawn from the Maxwell Leadership framework. The game surfaces real dynamics — how your leaders make decisions, handle conflict, and support each other — in a setting that feels safe enough to be honest.

03

Facilitated Debrief

The most important part. Zac guides the team through what surfaced during the game — the patterns, the strengths, the gaps. This is where insight becomes commitment. Your team leaves with specific, named next steps.

04

Takeaways Report

Within 48 hours, you receive a written summary of key themes, observations, and recommended actions — something you can bring back to your leadership meetings and actually use.

05

60-Day Follow-Up Call

Two months after the session, Zac reconnects with your team sponsor to assess what stuck, what didn't, and what support you need to maintain momentum.

Who This Is For

Built for executive teams
that need more than a workshop

This is not entry-level leadership content. The Maxwell Leadership Game is designed for organizations where leadership capability is a competitive advantage — and where the cost of misalignment is measured in millions.

C-Suite & Executive Committees
CEOs, COOs, CFOs, and their direct reports who need to operate as a genuinely unified team, not just a collection of functional leaders.
VP & Director Cohorts
Senior leaders who set the culture for hundreds of people below them — and whose alignment (or lack of it) shapes organizational performance.
Leadership Offsites & Retreats
Organizations that want their annual or quarterly leadership gathering to produce something more than nice slides and good intentions.
Newly Formed Teams
Post-merger, post-reorg, or newly appointed leadership teams that need to build trust and alignment faster than the business will wait.
What You Leave With

Concrete outcomes,
not just concepts

1
A shared leadership language Your team leaves with common vocabulary for the behaviors and values that matter — reducing friction in every future conversation.
2
Named alignment gaps and agreements Written, explicit, agreed-upon commitments about how your leadership team will operate differently going forward.
3
Increased psychological safety The game creates an environment where honest conversations happen — and those new norms carry into your regular work.
4
A documented session report A written summary of what emerged, what was committed to, and what to watch for — something tangible to bring back to your team.
5
A 60-day accountability touchpoint A scheduled follow-up that keeps the commitments alive past the first week back in the office.

"Thank you so much for being my partner on this journey, and for all the contributions towards helping our organization grow!"
