RESeT®
The capacity to see clearly under sustained pressure, and the tools to act on it. Not a wellness add-on. A structural advantage. Operational, not optional.
What it is
Capacity, and the tools to use it.
Both together — that’s the method.
The capacity. Three kinds of rest, treated as performance infrastructure. Active rest — deliberate movement and nervous-system regulation, capacity restored rather than paused. Actual rest — sleep as a performance variable, not a lifestyle choice. Random episodic silent thought — the unstructured state where strategy and insight actually emerge.
The tools. Short, usable, no theory. The four-way read. The sixty-second read. The change-my-mind trigger. The four-line debrief. Written to be used at a desk on a bad Tuesday, not studied — and you keep them.
Most leadership development trains the skill and ignores both: the conditions the skill depends on, and anything you can use on the day. RESeT® is the two together. Registered, grounded in science, presented plainly — we never overclaim.

Three ways to work
One Day. Three Day. Coaching.
One Day RESeT®. A day with a senior team or leadership cohort. The recovery-and-performance foundation, made practical. Standalone, or the front door.
Three Day RESeT®. An immersive residential, built from the self outward. Led by Sophie Plato and Mark Hardie.
RESeT® Coaching. One-to-one, for a senior leader under sustained load. The same foundation, built around one person. By referral.
The credibility
This is not borrowed expertise.
Mark spent twenty years in Royal Marines intelligence and operations, and closed that career as the Naval Service’s subject-matter expert on operational stress and professional ethics. Recovery, there, was never wellness — it was what kept people able to see clearly and decide under sustained pressure.
He is also a certified mindfulness teacher and performance breathwork coach — the practitioner ground under RESeT®’s regulation work. With Sophie Plato’s movement and nervous-system practice, recovery is treated as operational advantage: the capacity to re-orient when it counts. Because that is where the standard was set, and the cost of getting it wrong was never commercial.
Ask me what your leaders are running on.
Thirty minutes. Recovery and the capacity to think clearly, treated as an operational input — not a perk.
