We felt like a real team after CinQ. Not just working side by side, but actually thinking together.

We failed. Then we changed strategy. Then we won. That loop taught us more than any course ever has.

This is not training. It's performance practice.

The simulation matched the way we actually work. No perfect plan, just shared execution.
Phil Yeoman
Non-executive Director at CinQ
CinQ was designed for non-gamers and gamers alike.
The non-realistic narrative & characters offer an immersive experience, creating the perfect environment to analyze behaviors in-action. As a coach, I can provide live feedback that offers a point of reflection on personal and team performance.
