Sample exercise - Activity

Design, construct and race your vehicle! In this exercise, you and your team of mechanical engineers are commissioned to build a new off-road-vehicle for a mission on Mars. Based on your leadership practices, the new vehicle will either be a true hit or be doomed to sit in the archives with hundreds of other vehicles that didn’t make the cut. Do you have the right stuff to lead others to accomplish great things? Find out what great leaders believe and practice to achieve the best from themselves and their followers.
