About this session
By 2026, the highest-stakes decisions in business would not be made in calm boardrooms. They will be made under pressure, with incomplete data, competing priorities, and outcomes that can make or break an organization.
James Bond and Jason Bourne are not just cinematic heroes — they embody a mindset of resilience, adaptability, and calm under fire. In this gripping masterclass, legendary former FBI counterintelligence operative Eric O’Neill, who played a pivotal role in capturing Robert Phillip Hanssen, the most notorious spy in U.S. history, shows how the principles of spycraft translate directly into executive leadership in times of disruption.
In the months leading up to Hanssen’s arrest, Eric was tasked with gaining the trust of the master spy, working within a high-stakes, newly created division protecting all classified FBI intelligence. His investigative skill and strategic patience led to Hanssen’s exposure, arrest, and ultimate conviction — a real-world example of leadership, strategy, and decision-making under extraordinary pressure.
Through real-world espionage cases and behind-the-scenes lessons from his pursuit of America’s most notorious spy, O’Neill reveals how today’s leaders can adopt the same discipline and decision-making frameworks as elite operatives and how you can apply the same frameworks to your organization.
You will walk away with:
- A playbook for making bold, confident decisions with incomplete data
- Psychological tools to lead teams through volatility and disruption
- Insights on turning crisis into opportunity — just as operatives turn setbacks into strategy
- Practical techniques for cultivating trust, resilience, and clarity under pressure
This is not Hollywood fantasy. It is intelligence tradecraft transformed into executive strategy — for leaders ready to thrive when the stakes are highest.
