Field Training Exercise | FTX

OVERVIEW: The Echelon Front Field Training Exercise Program is a leadership training protocol that teaches, reviews, tests, and ingrains the leadership principles of Extreme Ownership utilizing experiential learning, dynamic feedback, and a carefully formulated methodology. Attendees are taught leadership principles and then the basic strategies, tactics, and techniques suitable for the training environment. Once prepared, participants are formed into teams, assigned leadership positions, and tasked with a mission. Attendees plan and execute the mission, where they will face leadership challenges that they must overcome utilizing the fundamental principles of leadership, including the four Laws of Combat, Extreme Ownership, and the Dichotomies of Leadership. Detailed debriefs after each training mission will help participants make direct connections from the leadership lessons, they are learning to actual leadership challenges they are working through both their professional and personal lives. After the debrief, new leaders will be selected for the team and another mission will be assigned. All participants have the opportunity to both lead and follow while rotating through various positions of the team. This is not a gunfighting or tactical warfighting course. This is a leadership course. The leadership principles imbued in the attendees apply to any leader in any situation, in business and in life.

RESULTS: Hands on experience implementing the Laws of Combat in high stress situations. Increased speed of decisions and actions. Increased ownership of problems and solutions.
