Crisis Recovery
Red Team Facilitation
Navigate the uncertainty of a crisis by mitigating risks and uncovering possibilities.
Facilitated exercises, simulations, and training allow our client to compete in complex environments by identifying vulnerabilities, challenging assumptions, and considering adversarial positions.
Traditionally, McChrystal’s facilitated Red Team exercises are conducted far in advance of a hypothetical “what if.” But what happens once the crisis has arrived? How do we take Red Teaming from “what if” to “what now?”
Three Simple Steps
- Envision the short-term
Paint a clear picture of the immediate future. - Tailor exercises to a focused problem set
Articulate the high-priority problem areas to pressure test with exercises. - Stay action-oriented
Leverage the ideas generated to build a concrete action plan

Every leader claims to prize dissent and critical thinking—but few institutionalize the process of disagreement and contrarian thinking. Without a systematic way of promoting critical thinking, leaders are relying upon chance or individual courage to speak up.
McChrystal Group’s Red Teaming solutions solve for this challenge through custom facilitated Red Team exercises. Our workshops enable teams to overcome groupthink, encourage new thinking, and uncover wisdom, while identifying risks and vulnerabilities.
