DRAKE - A Beyond the Wheel Case Study Story (E-BOOK) + Optional Reflective Worksheet
DRAKE— A Beyond the Wheel Case Study Story
By Beau Potter
A reflective, Fantasy story-driven case study that explores control, choice, capability, and identity through a real-world lens — created from lived experience.
Reflective Narrative + Optional Worksheet
Drake is a 55 year old, highly respected paladin knight — a battle commander whose leadership was once defined by presence, strength, and inevitability.
After sustaining a life-altering injury while protecting another knight in battle, Drake must learn to adapt to a world where his role has shifted. His strength remains — but how it is expressed, shared, and sustained begins to change.
Set within a fantasy realm of temples, orders, and contested authority, Drake explores what happens when leadership is no longer centred on control, command, or indispensability — but on collaboration, restraint, and trust.
This case study does not focus on loss or recovery.
It focuses on adaptation, dignity, and shared responsibility.

The story, characters, and events are not true and come from the author's imagination
The story, characters, and events are fictional and created from the author’s imagination.
While Drake's story is grounded in everyday professional life, the dynamics explored reflect real patterns observed across workplaces, services, and systems — allowing insight to emerge through narrative rather than instruction.
