Practice moving an initiative past a resisting executive peer

The CEO approved your initiative in principle, but an influential peer is lobbying against it — questioning the timing and pushing for a limited pilot instead. You can't order them to commit, and the readiness review is on Friday.

Don't tell us how you'd handle it. Practice it.

You: Chief Product Officer sponsoring a company-wide move from per-seat to usage-based pricing.

Them: The Chief Revenue Officer — influential, well-liked by the CEO, and resisting.

What you'll practice

• Influence without authority
• Finding the real objection
• Structured communication under redirection
• Adapting without conceding the initiative

How it works

You hold the whole conversation with an AI playing the other side, who reacts to how you handle them. When it ends, you get an evidence-based debrief of what you did and what to do differently — then you can run it again.
