Description

Human performance under stress isn’t a new topic.  What makes this presentation different is the recency of the research and the presenter’s background.  Some of the works in this area are over 25 years old and don’t reflect the most recent discoveries in the field.  This presentation uses the latest findings from a wide variety of fields to offer the best understanding of the topic currently available.  In addition to new research, considerable time is spent debunking erroneous myths that have been circulated for years. John Hearne brings the unique perspective of someone who has been a sworn peace officer since 1992, a successful competitive shooter, and a firearms/tactics instructor since 2001.  He has an academic background having earned a Masters Degree in Criminal Justice with a concentration in Research Methods and is a published author in peer-reviewed journals and popular books. His background helps him translate the current research into clear, easily understood material with practical ways to implement it and improve performance.
