Our mission

To build decision readiness.

We live in a rapidly changing world. The challenges we face are becoming more complex, interconnected, and unpredictable. We believe organisations need to be better prepared.

About Capital Shield

The platform

The flight simulator for crisis leadership.

Pilots don't just read manuals. They practice in a flight simulator that mimics the real conditions, pressure, and uncertainty they’ll face in the cockpit.Foresight does the same for your executives.

Simulation engine

Foresight: A decision environment that answers back.

Intelligence, news, messages and calls change with every decision your team makes. AI actors play the adversary, the regulator, the journalist and the public, while your facilitators keep control of the pace.

Post-exercise intelligence

Hindsight: Proof of how ready you really are.

Every decision, communication and delay, mapped against your own plans and standards. Performance is examined on the record, not on opinion.

In their words

From the people in the room.

Foresight represents a step-change in how we prepare leaders for the realities of modern crises.
Admiral Professor Chris Barrie ACFormer Chief of the Australian Defence Force
By far the most advanced exercise I have taken part in. The after-action debrief was what consolidated what we had learned.
Senior officialPacific Security College exercise
Far more engaging and realistic than other simulations I have participated in. It gave me more agency and felt strikingly similar to the workplace.
ParticipantHoneypots and Overcoats
Previous crisis simulations ran over Zoom with a far less sophisticated flow of information. Foresight made it feel real.
StudentExercise Hard Shell
Someone shouted 'check the news' and we all rushed to see what had happened, mid-negotiation. It was a great experience.

Making decisions is crucial, but it is equally important not to lose your head. Your team is your asset.
Foresight participant
It just felt extraordinarily interactive. I felt like I was really the role I was meant to play.
JonathanEarly Career Graduate
The Foresight simulation enabled me to participate in real time setting of a given crisis that gives me a real life test of what it can look like during a crisis when you are in the office.
