Overview

Project management under pressure.

The Sustainable Futures Lab (SFL) tests the project-management and crisis-decision skills at the heart of a modern assessment day. Select your scenario, weigh competing options and steer a programme to a defensible outcome within the time limit.

Two formats, one purchase. Every run lets you choose: the classic 20-minute question lab — 13 project-management questions against the clock — or the 30-minute team lab, where you lead a four-person research team through three field days of stations, intelligence triage, live decisions and daily reviews, then read a full debrief scored out of 100.

Our recreation keeps the structure of the real thing while giving you a clear, repeatable lab to practise in.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How close is the Sustainable Futures Lab to the real thing?

▾

It mirrors the real lab's format: a timed, 13-question project-management simulation with prioritisation, stakeholder and crisis decisions — plus the 30-minute team lab, included. Scored server-side with a personalised AI feedback report. An independent recreation: same pressure, never the official content.

How do the runs work?

▾

Your purchase lives on your account: three runs of Sustainable Futures Lab, unlocked the moment payment completes. Open the tool, confirm the entry prompt, and one run is consumed — re-run freely within that open session. Buy Sustainable Futures Lab or fold it into the McKinsey bundle.

Do my runs expire?

▾

No. Runs stay on your account until you use them — buy now, practise when your assessment is scheduled. Only entering the tool consumes a run; within an open session you can re-run as often as you like.

Is there a refund guarantee?

▾

Yes — for the McKinsey bundle: use every tool in it, and if McKinsey rejects you with a score below the 8th decile, you get a full refund within 30 days of purchase. This tool on its own is a single-product purchase, outside the guarantee: read the terms.
