Performance system for leadership teams under pressure - beyond “wellbeing.”

Built for CPOs and HR Directors with strong leadership teams under pressure. Capable, but stuck in reactive loops no resilience training has shifted.

Not therapy. Not another “feel good” workshop.

A structured half-day with 8–15 leaders to lock in shared priorities, faster decisions, and a weekly operating rhythm they build themselves and actually use.

EAP. Utilisation low. It doesn't touch leadership.

Mental health first aiders. Box ticked. Needle unmoved.

Resilience training. People found it useful. Nothing changed operationally.

Leadership development program. Skills improved. Operating environment didn't.

Wellbeing app. Open rate: 12%. CEO doesn't use it.

You've already tried the obvious things.

None of this is a failure of investment. It's a failure of targeting. Everything above treats the symptom.

The Extra Mile System addresses the system that creates the symptoms:

  • unclear priorities

  • no shared decision logic

  • a pace that consumes capacity faster than it can recover.

What changes after
a half-day workshop

A shared priorisation logic, so the list stops growing and decisions get faster.

A decision framework for when plans change under pressure, built for real conditions.

A weekly operating rhythm the team designed themselves, which is why they'll use it.

A shared language for when someone is at capacity and needs cover, before it becomes a crisis.

If you have a capable team stuck in an operating environment that's burning them out,

that's exactly what this is built for.

this a risk management decision, not a budget question.

Most leadership development costs €500–€1,200 per person.

A half-day workshop for a team of 10 costs €300 per head.

One stress-related long-term absence can cost roughly €19k–€31k per employee and may mean 163–313 lost working days.

Replacing a burned-out senior leader can cost ~150–200%+ of their annual salary, once recruiting, onboarding, productivity loss, and institutional knowledge are factored in.*

€300 per head is not a wellbeing question. It is a risk management question.

*According to publications from the DGFP and related studies, companies in Germany invest an average of €1,236 per employee per year in general training.

Built by someone who's been inside the machine, not designed for it from the outside.

20 years leading high-pressure marketing and product teams at Red Bull, Adidas, and Runtastic. Not as an HR

Consultant, as the VP and Director-level leader accountable for outcomes when the pressure landed.

That means I have been where your leadership team sits: too many priorities, expected to perform when the conditions don't support it.

The Extra Mile System isn't based on what I observed. It's built from what I have learned, including what broke and what didn't.
