Open workshops for individuals. Closed formats for teams and organisations. All formats: Villa Borg. 23–24 May 2026 — Register now.
For whom
Not the right fit, if: you are looking for an entertaining team event, want to train coaches or trainers, or fundamentally object to physical exercises.
One day that challenges your nervous system in a way no seminar can replicate. Physical precision meets neuropsychological analysis — and culminates in a concrete transfer into your everyday leadership.
The workshop is open: you train with up to five other executives at a similar level. No hierarchies. No roles. Just you and your reactions under pressure.
Top management coaches charge €3,000–5,000 for a single day without Arena infrastructure. Gladiator Leadership delivers the same psychological depth plus an experiential space that simply does not exist elsewhere.
Request a place Book an appointment → Read the book first →A poor decision in a negotiation costs many times more. One day that calibrates your capacity to react under pressure pays for itself at the first critical conversation.

Where the one-day workshop makes patterns visible, the two-day workshop changes them. Day 1 exposes the physiological baseline — stress response, decision behaviour, body language under pressure. Day 2 is dedicated entirely to transfer: video analysis, psychological re-programming, concrete business scenarios.
That is the difference between an experience and lasting behavioural change.
Two days. Two phases. A lasting change in the way you decide and lead under pressure. The ROI lies in the avoidance of poor decisions and burnout — both have a real monetary value in the millions.
Request a place Book an appointment →Neural re-programming requires sleep. What Day 1 triggers, the brain consolidates overnight. Day 2 picks up precisely at this point — when the experience is still fresh but already integrated.

Closed workshops exclusively for your leadership group. The entire format — timing, content, intensity, debriefing depth — is tailored to your organisation and your specific leadership challenges.
No off-the-shelf programme. No strangers in the room. Just your team and a framework that makes your specific dynamics visible.
Your C-level team faces a restructuring. Before decisions are made, you want to know how each individual responds under genuine pressure — and how the team functions as a whole.
New executives are taking on responsibility. Instead of a classical onboarding programme, you invest in a shared experience that simultaneously forges trust and leadership identity.
No lecture, no flip chart. An annual retreat that takes your leadership team out of the conference room and into the Arena — and back with a different quality of collaboration.
