Program Overview
Successfully surviving a sudden incident of violence is 90% mental and 10% physical skill. This course focuses on the 90% mental while concurrently providing skills to survive the 10% physical, as a last resort.
This program provides a solid foundation for gaining the skills necessary to prepare for “making good decisions in fractions of a second”, which is what's required to survive – the skill to be able to make “Good Decisions in Fractions of a Second”.
The most important factors are recognizing signs of violence in advance and becoming proficient in de-escalation techniques. These skills are critical as they can be the most important factors in either calming or fueling anger levels. The end result of this course will also provide all attendees with a base “mindset” and thought process that will keep them as safe as possible while they are away from work as much as it does while they are at work. The key to doing this is truly believing it can happen to you and knowing in advance how to prevent, prepare, and respond for such an event.
We also cover Practical Personal Defense designed to keep you safe while away from work via preparation for an incident of violence primarily through awareness, avoidance, and mental strength building. This material includes 100% practical, highly effective tactics and techniques that do not require practice or thought training.
The facilitated Roundtable will be an open discussion about what other systems are doing to prepare, what resources are available, and what are best practices to follow.
