Operato System
Operato offers a systematic, guided approach to optimizing goal achievement and guaranteeing self-improvement. We teach you the skills we learned in Special Operations to help you improve your habits, achieve your goals, and stick with your commitments. But that is just where we start.
Over time, we help you improve your decision-making, communication skills, stress management, discipline, and more. These small changes lead to a massive improvement in life quality— enhancing your leadership style, relationships with family members, belief in yourself to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and helping you find and pursue your purpose in life.
We don't just give you a fighting chance; we give you an unfair advantage.
How does Operato do this?
Operato offers one-on-one Advisory Services with a current or former Operator from Army Special Forces, Army Rangers, Navy SEALs, or another Special Operations unit. All Advisors are trained extensively on leveraging the Operato System to achieve massive success. (See the next section for more information on the Operato System.)
​
Beyond that, Operato offers free in-house consultations with Licensed Nutritionists and Certified Physical Trainers to maximize your chances of achieving your goals.
What is the Operato System?

The Operato System, built and refined from decades of Special Operation experience, is a systematic approach to optimizing goal achievement and self-improvement.
​
We have identified three Pillars of Success: Clarity, Expertise, and Accountability. Having Clarity is the ability to define a desired outcome or goal. Having Expertise ensures you have the technical skills required to achieve the desired outcome or goal. Accountability is the requisite follow-through to stay on track and achieve your goals. Most people are skilled in one or even two of these Pillars. Almost everyone needs help somewhere. That is where our Advisors come in.
​
The Operato System starts at the end and works backward. Our Advisors help you clarify your goal or desired outcome, which we call an Endstate. They then help you define the necessary Intermediate Steps to achieve that Endstate. The Advisor works with you to make and follow through on commitments to achieve these Intermediate Steps. Don’t have the technical skills to achieve the Intermediate Steps? No problem. The Advisor helps you learn and establish the necessary expertise required. Using this system, you are empowered to focus on small, tangible, achievable goals. Your Advisor guides and supports you along the way.
​
We have some general recommendations for all clients. It is hard to be at the top of your game when you are tired, have low energy, or are unfocused. That is why we emphasize the importance of proper sleep, good nutrition, and consistent exercise. If those are areas of your life on which you aim to improve, your Advisor will leverage our in-house consultants and integrate their services into your program.
What does a session look like?
Each session is divided into two parts.
Part 1: Advisors help you with goal achievement using the Operato backward planning path.
​
Part 2: Advisors work with you to tackle daily struggles, initially focusing on resolving acute issues and then concentrating on helping you change your behavior to develop and learn from the situation.
​
As we get to know you more, we work towards part two, focusing more on how you are “showing up” in life. Are you keeping your word? Are you reliable? Do you challenge and push yourself? Do you support your friends and family? Are you in a growth mindset? Are you better today than you were yesterday?
​
Part 1 is consistent across all Advisors; everyone uses the same techniques to support you in achieving your Endstate. Part 2 is more flexible and dependent on the client-advisor relationship.
