Meet the CEO / Calibration Storm

The flagship session · 90 minutes · main stage

Nobody sits and listens. Your whole sales floor plays.

Everyone marks the same real sales call on their phone. The room sees how far apart it is. Then it watches itself agree. Your team leaves knowing what good looks like. You leave with the number.

The session

Calibration Storm, round by round.

A game with a real score. The room is the player. Sales craft is what it learns.

Two dot plots. Left: the room's marks spread across all four levels when marking cold. Right: the same room after one written standard, with marks pulled onto two adjacent levels.
What the room sees on the wall. Left, the first ten minutes. Right, forty-five minutes later, after one written standard. Swipe to see both.
110 MIN

Everyone marks the same call, cold

A real sales call plays, from our anonymised library. Not one of yours. Every phone scores it. No rubric, no discussion, no conferring.

215 MIN

The spread goes on the wall

Every mark appears as a dot. The room is usually spread across all four levels on the same call. That spread is why written standards exist.

320 MIN

One skill, opened all the way up

The full rubric on screen. What Foundation, Proficient, Advanced and Expert look like, with real examples of each. This is the teaching.

420 MIN

Mark again. Watch the room pull together.

The same call, plus five fresh ones. The spread pulls onto two adjacent levels and the agreement score recalculates live. The jump is the proof.

515 MIN

Human markers and a machine drop in

Our Second Marking panel marked the same calls blind. So did a commercial AI agent. Both land on your scoreboard, beside your room.

610 MIN

What that one skill unlocks

Where that skill sits in the wider standard, and what it has to come before. Then we book the 90-day re-mark.

One call runs in Portuguese with the subtitles off, to show the standard reads behaviour, not language. Nothing is ever attributed to a person or a team.

What you get

One session. Two very different wins.

Your sellers and managers

  • 01They learn what sales craft is, broken into named skills
  • 02They see one skill defined from Foundation through to Expert
  • 03They find out where their own eye is sharp and where it drifts, privately
  • 04They leave agreeing on what good looks like, which is what makes coaching stick

You, the person who booked it

  • 01A hard number: the room’s agreement score, before the standard and after
  • 02The rubric lines your team splits on, which is your coaching priority
  • 03Four questions you can put to any AI scoring vendor, including us
  • 04An optional 90-day re-mark, so you can show your CRO it moved

The 2027 tour

We route around confirmed dates.

Most kickoffs land in the same January and February window, in the same handful of cities. The route gets built around whoever books first.

Send your date and city. If it anchors a region the fee drops 20%. If not, we will say so and look at a virtual session instead.

How it works

  • 01You send your date, city and which option you want.
  • 02We answer within 2 working days: routable or not, and at what rate.
  • 03Storm needs 3 weeks. Using your own calls needs 6.
  • 04Routes lock in November 2026.
After the kickoff

90 minutes changes what your managers can see. It does not install a standard.

Keeping it measured all year is a different job. That is what our installation programs do, and you are under no obligation to have that conversation.
