Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way organizations analyze information, predict outcomes, and make critical decisions-but the real advantage isn't simply having more data. It's knowing what to do with it.
On this episode of the American Warrior Show, Rich Brown sits down with Nissim Titan, CEO of 4Cast, to discuss AI-driven decision making and how emerging technology can help leaders turn massive amounts of information into actionable intelligence.
Nissim shares his perspective on the intersection of artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, human judgment, and real-world decision making. The conversation explores how AI can help identify patterns, anticipate problems, evaluate risk, and allow decision-makers to act faster and with greater confidence.
In this episode:
- How AI is transforming the decision-making process
- Turning enormous amounts of data into usable intelligence
- Predictive analytics and identifying problems before they occur
- Where artificial intelligence outperforms traditional analysis
- Why human judgment still matters in an AI-driven world
- Using technology to improve speed, accuracy, and situational awareness
- The dangers of bad data and misplaced confidence in technology
- How leaders can begin incorporating AI into their organizations
- What the next generation of AI-assisted decision making may look like
For anyone interested in leadership, technology, preparedness, intelligence, or making better decisions under pressure, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how AI is becoming a powerful force multiplier for the modern decision-maker.
What if one of the greatest threats to your safety isn't a lack of awareness—but the false belief that you're paying attention?
In this episode of the American Warrior Show, Rich Brown sits down with cognitive scientist Dr. Paul Atchley to explore the science of attention, perception, and human performance.
For decades, Dr. Atchley has studied how people process information, how distraction impacts performance, and why our brains often fail to detect important details even when they appear to be in plain sight. His work has influenced conversations surrounding driving safety, human attention, decision-making, and risk assessment.
Dr. Atchley has been conducting research and teaching about cognitive factors related to hazard perception and inattention for over 30 years. He is currently on faculty at the University of South Florida. Dr. Atchley received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Riverside in 1996 and completed postdoctoral training at the Beckman Institute at the University of Illinois in 1998. Dr. Atchley has published numerous peer-reviewed articles and chapters on issues of vision and attention. He has also received awards for his research, teaching, service and student advising. Dr. Atchley's work has been highlighted by national and international press such as the BBC, NPR, and the New York Times. During this conversation, Rich and Dr. Atchley discuss:
• The science of situational awareness • Why people miss obvious threats and critical information • Attention, distraction, and performance under stress • Human perception and its limitations • Decision-making in dynamic environments • What instructors, law enforcement officers, and armed citizens can learn from cognitive science • Practical ways to improve awareness and performance
Whether you're a competitor, instructor, law enforcement officer, military professional, or armed citizen, this episode provides valuable insights into how your brain works - and how understanding those limitations can make you safer and more effective.
Enjoy the show.

In this round two conversation, Rich Brown sits down with Gavin Glasenapp, former 160th SOAR (Night Stalker) pilot and current leader on the Delta Defense training team for a deep dive into what it really takes to transition from military and law enforcement into the firearms training world.
This episode goes beyond war stories. It's about teaching, influence, and carrying the mission forward in a way that actually impacts armed citizens.
In this episode, we cover:
- The reality of transitioning from military/LE into the firearms industry, and where many get it wrong
- Why high-level operational experience doesn't automatically translate into effective instruction
- The fundamentals of teaching firearms to everyday citizens vs. trained professionals
- The responsibility of instructors in shaping safe, capable, and confident protectors

- Lessons from the 160th SOAR mindset: preparation, accountability, and performance under pressure
- What makes a firearms instructor truly "high level" in today's environment
This is a conversation about evolution of identity, of mission, and of responsibility.
If you're an instructor, a protector, or someone serious about getting better, this one delivers.

In this episode, Rich Brown sits down with John Hearn of Two Pillars Training to break down what the data actually tells us about defensive gunfights—and how most training completely misses the mark.
John has built a reputation for digging into real-world incidents, analyzing patterns, and applying that information to how we should actually train. From distances and timing to decision-making under pressure, this conversation challenges assumptions and replaces them with reality.
They dive into what the numbers reveal about how fights really unfold, where traditional training falls short, and how armed citizens can better prepare for the moments that matter most.
If you're serious about training with purpose—not just going through the motions—this episode will change how you think about practice.

In this episode, Rich Brown sits down with returning guest Simon Golob for a raw and timely discussion on recent events shaping the security landscape—centered on the terrorist attack at Old Dominion.
This isn't a distant, overseas incident. It's a reminder that violence can surface anywhere, at any time—and often where people feel safest.
Rich and Simon break down what happened, what we know so far, and—more importantly—what it means for the everyday armed citizen.
What you'll hear in this episode:
- A breakdown of the Old Dominion attack and key takeaways
- How modern threats are evolving—and why they're getting harder to predict
- The mindset gap: why most people are still unprepared for sudden violence
- Awareness failures and environmental blind spots in public spaces
- Where armed citizens fit—and where they don't—in events like this
- Practical considerations for movement, positioning, and decision-making under stress
This episode isn't about fear—it's about clarity.
Because the question isn't if violence exists. The question is whether you're prepared when it finds you.

This conversation isn't about hype or hero worship. It's about standards. It's about how elite units train, communicate, and execute and what armed citizens, competitors, and instructors can take from those principles.
Because here's the truth: individual skill matters… but team performance wins.
In this episode, they discuss: * The difference between being a good shooter and being an asset to a team * Why elite units obsess over repetition and measurable standards * Communication under stress and how small breakdowns create big failures * Accountability inside high-performance cultures * How ego quietly destroys team effectiveness * What civilian defenders misunderstand about "tactical" training * Applying special operations training principles to your own range time
Rich and Bill break down how discipline, humility, and clear standards build competence - and how those same principles can transform the way you train, lead, and protect.
Whether you're an instructor, competitor, protector, or leader in your own home, this episode challenges you to raise your standards.
Train with purpose. Perform with discipline. Contribute to the team.

In this episode of the American Warrior Show, Rich Brown sits down with TC Fuller for a deep, uncomfortable, and necessary conversation about obedience, authority, and moral responsibility.
Using Stanley Milgram's famous obedience experiments and Christopher Browning's book Ordinary Men, Rich and TC break down how average, everyday people—not monsters—can be led to commit acts they never believed themselves capable of.
This episode explores:
- Why people obey authority even when it violates their moral compass
- How peer pressure and normalization override conscience
- The concept of the "agentic state" and why responsibility gets outsourced
- Why "just following orders" is one of the most dangerous phrases in history
- What warriors, leaders, instructors, and armed citizens must do to resist blind compliance
This isn't a history lesson—it's a warning.
For warriors, protectors, and leaders, the takeaway is clear: Character, moral courage, and independent thinking must be trained—deliberately—or they will fail under pressure.
If you carry responsibility—for a weapon, a badge, a team, or a family—this episode will challenge how you think about obedience, leadership, and your own decision-making under authority.

Rich Brown is a retired Marine Corps Officer, former Police Officer, and the Co-Host of America's leading Self-Defense podcast, the American Warrior Show. On today's American Warrior Show, we will be joined by Mike Chesne. Mike founded Tecton after a storied 25-year career in the United States Army Special Operations. At Tecton, as Chairman of the Board and Chief of Innovation, he maintains the corporate vision and mission while continuing to delve deeply into scientific exploration to create new and innovative ways to broaden the scope and breadth of Tecton’s product portfolio and intellectual property landscape. At the outset of Tecton, he developed the biochemical makeup and design for the Tecton Ketone molecule. He then methodically worked on the methods, processes, and procedures necessary to formulate and manufacture the molecule from the benchtop to large-scale manufacturing. This process was designed to make it the most energy-efficient and environmentally friendly process possible, beginning with organic byproducts and enzymes and finishing with no hazardous waste. Mike founded an emergency medical supply company shortly before retiring from the army. This company developed trauma and emergency medical kits for all branches of the United States Department of Defense, as well as many of our NATO allied countries, and some of these kits are still standard issue in several different military forces to this day. Mike exited this business (Caromeds) and went into global healthcare consulting, working with the Ministries of Health of Afghanistan, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Algeria, etc. During this period, he developed the curriculum for the first-ever nursing school in Afghanistan, realigned the entire healthcare system and medical doctor training program in Afghanistan, assisted in the logistics and manning of the Faruq Medical Center in Sulaymaniyah, Kurdistan, Iraq, and helped the Algerian government design and develop their own version of the Food and Drug Administration. His experience in the United States Army working with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) led him to develop a keen understanding of the scientific method and of cutting-edge science. In 2012, he read about an older DARPA project which involved the search for a nutritional supplement that would improve physical performance and cognition by thirty percent. This project started in 2004 and had been funded for nearly ten million dollars. It never met the full requirement, so it was ended. The end product of that research was an exogenous ketone developed by Oxford University and the National Institutes of Health. He ended his healthcare consulting, went to Oxford, and began working on ketones. He is a motivational speaker who speaks at veterans’ events and fundraisers around the country, as well as brain injury and brain health symposiums sponsored by the Department of Defense and the Veterans Administration. He has received many awards and decorations while serving in the army and served in the most prestigious units in the army. He has served in combat throughout the globe and continues to serve veterans through his charity work. Mike is passionate about helping others. He serves on the Board of Directors of multiple veteran non-profits and has served in many roles in these organizations, including Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Treasurer, Co-Founder, etc. He will continue to serve these deserving people for as long as he is physically able. He splits his time between Orlando, Florida, with his wife, oldest son, three grandsons, and daughter-in-law, and Alexandria, Louisiana, with his wife, youngest son, two...

We will discuss Operation Eagle Claw on the 45th anniversary. We will discuss its causes, execution, and lessons learned. JOIN US! Operation Eagle Claw was a U.S. military mission conducted on April 24-25, 1980, aimed at rescuing 53 American hostages held at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran during the Iran hostage crisis. The operation emerged from President Carter’s growing frustration with the inability to secure the hostages' release through diplomatic channels. Executed by the fledgling Delta Force, the mission faced significant challenges, including mechanical failures, adverse weather at Desert One, and poor planning. Ultimately, the mission was aborted, leading to the deaths of eight servicemen. Key lessons learned included the need for improved intelligence, contingency planning, and enhanced coordination in special operations.

Writing on Travel and Tourism, his book, Timeless Karoo was published in 2007, and as a freelance journalist and photographer, he also writes for various publications, including the Rhodes Business School website and the Daily Maverick. He is a past chairman of the Southern African Freelancers Association and is sought after as a speaker and debater on environmental issues at international conferences. Deal presented at Al Gore’s International Climate Leadership School in Johannesburg in March 2014 and was honored in the same year to be listed by City Press as 1 of 100 World Class South Africans, sharing the accolade with fellow citizens such as Nelson Mandela, Mark Shuttleworth and Charlize Theron. His background in journalism and public speaking has proved invaluable in moving Safe Citizen forward. As a committed trainer, he holds a fierce passion for lawful and competent private gun ownership and regards himself as an influencer in this realm in South Africa. Reading widely on training and civil rights issues, Deal views SafeCitizenas a necessary vehicle to move lawful gun owners close to the police as trusted allies – proving that citizens who can defend themselves will be a powerful and positive influence on the communities in which they live. Deal intends to use every resource available to unite lawful South Africans who support private firearm ownership, to overturn the untrue perception that firearms are bad and that private firearm owners are to blame for the flood of illegal firearms in the country. He is determined that his fellow citizens should be able, via the lawful possession of a firearm to enjoy the Constitutional guarantee of freedom from public or private violence.

In today's Coffee with Rich, Mike Seeklander will join us to discuss the book, Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs by Lou Elizondo! Join us! This is part 2 of the UAP/UFO series and if you have not listened to part one, please jump back into podcast episode #380. In this show we break down key information points in Lou's new book and discuss some yet undiscussed aspects of the hot topic of UAP/UFO's. Luis “Lue” Elizondo is a former senior intelligence official and special agent who was recruited into a strange and highly sensitive US Government program to investigate UAP incursions into sensitive military installations and air space. To accomplish his mission, Elizondo had to rely on decades of experience gained working some of America’s most sensitive and classified programs. Even then, he was not prepared for what he would learn, and the truth about the government’s long shadowy involvement in UAP investigations, and the lengths officials would take to keep them a secret.
The stakes could not be higher. Imminent is a first-hand, revelatory account inside the Pentagon’s most closely guarded secret and a call to action to confront humanity’s greatest existential questions.

On today's Coffee with Rich, we will be joined by Charles Haywood. Charles Haywood writes at The Worthy House. He was born in Indiana, where he now lives with his Australian wife and five children. His father taught Russian history at Purdue University. His mother was born in Hungary, and Charles has spent quite a bit of time in Hungary and maintains a keen interest in Hungarian affairs. After getting a degree in history from Indiana University, Haywood moved to Chicago, to obtain a law degree from the University of Chicago Law School. He graduated in 1994 and clerked for a year for the late Hon. Michael S. Kanne, on the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and then practiced as a big-firm lawyer in Chicago in the late 1990s and early 2000s, primarily mergers-and-acquisitions and securities law. However, Charles tired of law and wanted to be rich. So he gave more of his money to the University of Chicago, to get an MBA at the Booth School of Business. Then he moved back to Indiana and started a business that developed and manufactured hair care products (after first briefly operating a woodworking and cabinetry business). He grew the business to 150 employees and sold it in 2020. Now, other than The Worthy House, Charles involves himself in various political and cultural matters, but also devotes considerable time to trying to be a gentleman farmer. He and his family raise bees, chickens, and a wide variety of plants, and he hopes to expand these endeavors.

His father taught Russian history at Purdue University. His mother was born in Hungary, and Charles has spent quite a bit of time in Hungary and maintains a keen interest in Hungarian affairs. After getting a degree in history from Indiana University, Haywood moved to Chicago, to obtain a law degree from the University of Chicago Law School. He graduated in 1994 and clerked for a year for the late Hon. Michael S. Kanne, on the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and then practiced as a big-firm lawyer in Chicago in the late 1990s and early 2000s, primarily mergers-and-acquisitions and securities law. However, Charles tired of law and wanted to be rich. So he gave more of his money to the University of Chicago, to get an MBA at the Booth School of Business. Then he moved back to Indiana and started a business that developed and manufactured hair care products (after first briefly operating a woodworking and cabinetry business). He grew the business to 150 employees and sold it in 2020. Now, other than The Worthy House, Charles involves himself in various political and cultural matters, but also devotes considerable time to trying to be a gentleman farmer. He and his family raise bees, chickens, and a wide variety of plants, and he hopes to expand these endeavors.

Join me today for a discussion with Walt Settlemyre the Host of The Distinguished Savage Podcast. Walt Settlemyre is a US Army veteran serving with the 25th ID for the majority of his 4 years active duty. After the Army he followed several career paths along with higher education but was always missing something meaningful! Looking for purpose he initially found Fire Service and ultimately Emergency Medical Services as a Paramedic. With 30 years now as a Paramedic in 911 systems the vast majority of that time has been spent in EMS Special Operations as both a Tactical Medic and Rescue Medic. Until recently the last 20 years was focused more on the Rescue side of the house including swift water, and swift water boat operations, rope rescue, high angle, structural collapse, trench rescue, infectious disease response, and Search and Rescue. After an injury made it difficult to remain in Special Operations and moving in to Field Operations on a regular ambulance he then focused both on teaching Tactical and Austere Med Courses to civilians and on revamping the defensive tactics program for his department, Austin Travis Co EMS. The program he helped build now consists of elements from different defensive tactics methodologies that flow well together. Situational awareness and deescalation, Tony Blauers Spear, Gracie Survival Tactics, Jon Burke’s P4 program, and elements of the Shivworks Collective’s Managing Unknown Contacts as well as fighting in an enclosed and entangled environment as in the back of an ambulance, where a majority of assaults on EMS personnel occur. Two years ago he also started a podcast, The Distinguished Savage in an effort to talk to other like minded individuals on self defense, EDC, critical thinking skills, along with people’s story. Now nearing retirement in EMS he’s looking towards moving in to executive protection and continuing the podcast! 8Distinguished Savage Podcast: The Distinguished Savage Podcast on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com › podcast › the-distinguished...

On today's Coffee with Rich, we will be joined by Jonathan Deal. MR. Deal operates full time as the founder and lead instructor of Zero Points Down Academy (ZPD) in South Africa. ZPD is a bespoke training operation catering for Police mandated training of citizens on all small arms as well as advanced levels of sport shooting, including precision long-range shooting. He is the IDPA State Coordinator for the Cape Province in South Africa and a keen Sport Shooter. In 2020 he founded the SAFE CITIZEN Campaign www.safecitizen.co.za – a civil rights group concerned with the safety of South Africans who daily face escalating and brutal crime. Writing on Travel and Tourism, his book, Timeless Karoo was published in 2007, and as a freelance journalist and photographer, he also writes for various publications, including the Rhodes Business School website and the Daily Maverick. He is a past chairman of the Southern African Freelancers Association and is sought after as a speaker and debater on environmental issues at international conferences. Deal presented at Al Gore’s International Climate Leadership School in Johannesburg in March 2014 and was honored in the same year to be listed by City Press as 1 of 100 World Class South Africans, sharing the accolade with fellow citizens such as Nelson Mandela, Mark Shuttleworth and Charlize Theron. His background in journalism and public speaking has proved invaluable in moving Safe Citizen forward. As a committed trainer, he holds a fierce passion for lawful and competent private gun ownership and regards himself as an influencer in this realm in South Africa. Reading widely on training and civil rights issues, Deal views SafeCitizenas a necessary vehicle to move lawful gun owners close to the police as trusted allies – proving that citizens who can defend themselves will be a powerful and positive influence on the communities in which they live. Deal intends to use every resource available to unite lawful South Africans who support private firearm ownership, to overturn the untrue perception that firearms are bad and that private firearm owners are to blame for the flood of illegal firearms in the country. He is determined that his fellow citizens should be able, via the lawful possession of a firearm to enjoy the Constitutional guarantee of freedom from public or private violence.

In the beginning, he began studying martial arts and training under Sifu Paul Vunak (under Guru Dan Inosanto) in Bruce Lees’s art of Jeet Kune Do. He founded his own studio in the Chicago suburbs shortly after being certified as one of only a handful of Full Instructors of JKD and the Filipino Martial Arts. He also holds a Certified Executive Instructor position under Progressive Fighting Systems, which is the “crème de la crème” in functional Jeet Kune Do. Mr. Numrich has also had the pleasure of training with some of the other elite JKD instructors such as Sifu Larry Hartsell (original student of Bruce Lee) and Thomas Cruse (past instructor of the Navy Seals). Mr. Numrich has written a manuscript on Jeet Kune Do (JKD), in addition to several articles in US and international martial arts magazines. In 2001, he completed the first JKD on DVD instructional series, which is now distributed around the world.

For more information on this, please go to: www.FearlessStreetFighter.com Within the last several years, Mr. Numrich completed many new self-defense programs, which focus on “average and untrained civilians” – as he saw this is where the need truly exists.

His passion is using martial arts to increase the quality of his student's lives. Whether he is teaching character values to children, intense street fighting drills to men, or confidence-building self-defense techniques to women – Mr. Numrich is living his mission. His school has a pool of students that consists of police officers, security guards, military, other martial arts instructors, men, women, and children of all ages. His close-knit group of students creates an atmosphere of faster, more effective learning for all.

Show # 264 - Coffee with Rich | Round Two with Manhar Parshotam Founder and Director of Dragon Protection Services
On today's Coffee with Rich, we will be joined by Manhar Parshotam for round two of the initial discussion about the events in the near South African coup. Manhar Parshotam is the founder, a shareholder and director of Dragon Protection Services, which was established in 1996. Manhar grew up in Durban and attended Burnwood Secondary School in Sydenham. After he completed his schooling, he spent two years studying for a degree in engineering until he switched to a BCom degree. During his university years, he was a voluntary policeman and subsequently served as a police reservist for 15 years. Manhar’s explains that his career in the security field ‘happened by accident’. In the 1990s he worked parttime in security during the South African Amnesty process, which boosted his interest in the field. Whilst working in security during a huge petrol strike, a chance encounter changed his life’s direction. A medical doctor approached and requested him to perform a security assessment of one of the doctor’s buildings. Following this assessment, he was offered the security contract for the building. This was a huge learning curve,” explains Manhar. In his final year of BCom, Manhar had to make a choice to either complete his studies or go full time into the security business. “This decision was hard as there were more cons than pros and was based on the opportunity to train ex-soldiers in security so that they could be reintegrated back into society and obtain jobs.” After much deliberation Manhar left the university and the business grew from there. Some of the highlights of his career included seeing Fidel Castro and Muammar Gaddafi in person. A standout moment was watching Nelson Mandela arrive at the Durban ICC. “I got to see an icon – there was an aura about him which gave me goosebumps,” said Manhar. During 2001 Manhar was provided the opportunity by the South African Government to attend internationally recognized protection training courses in the United Kingdom and the United States. In his down time, Manhar enjoys competitive shooting as well as spending time with his family. “They help you relax, keep you calm and put a smile on my face.” He concluded, “Be happy, do what you love. If you love what you are doing, then every day is a holiday.” Dragon Protective Services: https://dragonprotection.co.za/ Coffee with Rich Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/rhodieusmc/videos American Warrior Show: https://americanwarriorshow.com/index.html SWAG: https://shop.americanwarriorsociety.com/ American Warrior Society please visit: https://americanwarriorsociety.com/ Rich's Coffee: Pete's Espresso Ristretto via a Nespresso by Delonghi

Show # 260 - Coffee with Rich | Former Special Mission Unit Officer and Commander Pete Blaber
Pete Blaber commanded at every level of one of the most elite counter-terrorist organizations in the world during most of recent history’s most significant military and political events (Panama, Colombia, Somalia, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and Iraq).In 2006 he retired from the military and transitioned from leading elite combat teams around the globe, to leading elite corporate teams for one of the world's largest and most innovative Biotechnology Companies. “After 21 years of using the term ‘common sense’ to describe the way I lived and led in the military, this was the first time I actually paused to ponder what ‘common sense’ actually is and why people seem to recognize, respond to, and appreciate ‘common sense leadership’ whenever they experience it. I didn’t have to look far to find the answer. The answer is both all around and inside us. It’s not political, or religious, or philosophic. It’s biologic. Biology reveals that life always finds a way. It’s the "Common Sense Way.” In 2015 I left my job as a Biotechnology executive to write this book. “In 2018, while still working on this book, I decided it was time to pressure test the “Common Sense Way” in the living laboratory of real-world experience, so I started an international company that adds armor protection to any type of vehicle (e.g. cars, trucks, vans, buses, etc.). The idea behind Adding Armor is to create a “Mobile Safe-Room” that protects the vehicle’s passengers from would-be attackers (criminals, terrorists, active shooters, and anarchists) while also providing “peace of mind” that cannot be attained in an unarmored vehicle. In today’s world, adding armor to protect your family, friends, and colleagues is common sense. It’s the ‘Common Sense Way’”. Pete was born and raised in Oak Park, Illinois. He has an MBA and an MS in National Security and Strategic Affairs.

Show # 244 - Coffee with Rich | Gulf War Veteran Jason Brown
On this Special Coffee with Rich, we will look back on the 30th anniversary of the Gulf War. To do this, we will be joined by Jason Brown. Jason is a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, having served from August of 1989 through July of 1993. During those four years, he didn’t miss much. Chronologically, he participated in Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm, the military response to the 1992 L.A. Riots, he was attached to Joint Task Force North (then JTF-6) for operations on our southern border, and he was involved in the early months of Operation Restore Hope in Somalia. While he had several opportunities to make an impact in a short military career, it would ultimately be an engagement in Umm Hjul during Desert Storm, chronicled by David Morris in the book “Storm on the Horizon”, that would have the longest impact on him. After the Marine Corps, Jason cultivated a career in Information Technology, helped build a small but wonderful family, and returned to his love for shooting as both competitor and instructor. He lives in Missouri with his wife and two children, and can often be found chasing after the top spot in IDPA matches around the Midwest. Jason Brown: https://jasonpbrown.net/sponsors SWAG:

Show # 232 - Managing Violence with Joe Saunders #theviolenceguy
This week Mike interviews Joe Saunders - a short introduction from Joe as follows:
"My name is Joe Saunders. I’m the host of the Managing Violence Podcast and the Victorian state manager for Risk 2 Solution Group. I’m also a behavioral science nerd. I am fascinated by the subject of communication and de-escalation training, particularly as it applies to aggression management and workplace violence prevention. My journey to this profession wasn’t through the typical academic or law enforcement route, and I believe that gives me a unique view on an age-old problem.
As a young man and avid martial artist, I found myself taking work as a nightclub bouncer to pay my way through university. What I soon found was that while my physical martial arts came in handy more often than I’d like to admit, it was my ability to communicate under pressure and find common ground with aggressive people that was my most important skill. In fact, I began to see my ability to talk to anyone as my most important martial art."
