On June 6, 1944, Allied forces launched Operation Overlord, the largest amphibious invasion in history. The D-Day landings on the beaches of Normandy were the result of months of meticulous planning, intelligence coordination, and courageous leadership. Success depended on bold decisions by General Dwight D. Eisenhower, as well as on-the-ground adaptability by thousands of officers and enlisted leaders who faced chaos the moment they hit the sand.
OVERLORD: LEADERSHIP LESSONS FROM D-DAY transports your team to the beaches, cliffs, and fields where the fate of the free world once hung in the balance. It’s a powerful setting to examine leadership under pressure—where communication broke down, plans unraveled, and success required immediate, values-based decision-making.
Through guided exploration of sites like Omaha Beach, Sainte-Mère-Église, and Pointe du Hoc, participants reflect on how leaders at every level shaped the outcome of the operation. Discussions focus on how to build unity of effort across large organizations, navigate high-stakes uncertainty, and lead when there’s no playbook to follow.
D-Day wasn’t just a military victory—it was a triumph of coordination, courage, and clarity of purpose. This experience challenges your team to ask: how do we lead when everything’s on the line?
