Course overview
Replace outdated playbooks with a leadership operating system for the AI-era
The pace of change will never be this slow again.
AI and technology are outpacing rules.
Markets are rewiring in months, not decades.
Pressure is up. Clarity is down.
Most executives are still running on a playbook built for a slower world.
Executive EDGE gives you the system and the AI-powered Co-Pilot to perform, decide, and adapt in this reality.
What You’ll Get
Over 21 days, you’ll master the Four Plays of the EDGE Field Guide: a repeatable cycle for performing when the pace spikes and the path isn’t clear.
1) Diagnose – Know where you stand (self + environment).
2) Define – Set direction with precision.
3) Deploy – Act with speed and conviction.
4) Distil – Adapt and amplify.
You’ll also get your own portable EDGE Kit - the templates, guardrails, and AI prompts you can use the same day in any high-change environment.
Why It Works
Built for the age of AI – Every Play is paired with AI-powered prompts to scan, decide, and execute faster.
Practical over theoretical – You’ll leave each session with something you can use immediately.
Repeatable anywhere – Works in a boardroom, a crisis, a pitch, or a project sprint.
This Course Is For You If You Want To…
- Make faster, sharper decisions under pressure.
- Stay relevant and competitive as AI changes the game.
- Align your team and stakeholders around a clear direction.
- Keep momentum visible and measurable, without burning out.
What’s Inside
- 4 live workshops (recorded if you miss one).
- Personalised EDGE States diagnostic and debrief.
- Step-by-step EDGE Kit (templates, guardrails, prompts).
- Access to the EDGE Co-Pilot for 90 days after the course.
- Peer discussions and direct feedback.
Before → After
Before: Feeling reactive, scattered, and behind the pace of change.
After: Moving fast and on purpose, with a system you can run anywhere the stakes are high.
The world won’t wait. Neither should you. Reserve your spot now

What you’ll get out of this course
Diagnose your EDGE State: Uncover the inner drivers & outer impact dictating your default leadership style when facing tech-driven change.
You’ll take the EDGE States diagnostic to identify your default and shadow leadership states under pressure. Learn how they shape your speed, risk appetite, and visibility and the impact they have on your team, peers, and board. Walk away knowing exactly what helps or hinders you
Define your EDGE Charter: Clarify what you stand for, where you're going, and how you want to lead in response to accelerating change.
Create a one-page leadership compass to anchor your decisions in fast-moving environments. Capture your principles, success markers, and decision rules so you can stay aligned when priorities shift and the pace spikes.
Deploy EDGEcraft: Rewire your leadership operating system so you can decide faster, lead with clarity, and act with conviction.
Learn and apply the EDGEcraft OS: a 5-step decision loop to move from friction to flow in real time. Test it on a current leadership challenge so you leave with a repeatable system for clarity, speed, and execution under pressure.
Distil your EDGEprint: Build a distinct leadership narrative and executive presence for impact in high-stakes, high-velocity environments.
Define the visible imprint of how you lead. Refine your narrative, communication style, and executive presence for high-stakes environments. Leave with language and positioning you can use immediately in teams, boardrooms, and public forums.
Design your EDGE canvas: A 90-day plan to turn strategic intent into daily momentum and deliver high-impact results where it counts.
Build a personalised 90-day execution plan to turn intent into momentum. Align your energy, time, and decisions to three high-impact priorities and lock in weekly rituals to sustain visibility, focus, and results where they matter most.

Kate Cooper
I’ve spent 25+ years leading transformation where innovation isn’t a given, it’s earned in the most complex, high-stakes environments. From the UK Government’s first Head of Social Media, to senior executive roles at National Australia Bank and Westpac, to now CEO of OKX Australia, one of the world’s leading digital asset platforms, I’ve led at the sharp end of change.
Across government, banking, and Web3, I’ve steered teams through market shocks, regulatory grey zones, and high-speed expansions into new markets. I’ve built strategies that deliver under pressure, scaled operations in uncharted territory, and helped leaders make the calls that matter when time is short and stakes are high.
I’m also the author of the upcoming book EDGE, a field guide for leaders navigating tech-driven change. The frameworks in this course come directly from that work - tested in boardrooms, on trading floors, and in policy meetings - so you can apply them immediately to your own high-stakes leadership challenges.
