Human performance under stress isn’t a new topic. What makes this critically acclaimed presentation different is the recency of the research and the presenter’s background. Some of the previous 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. Attendees are given a “to do” list of proven practices to improve their own ability to perform in critical circumstances.
John Hearne brings the unique perspective of someone who has been a sworn peace officer since 1992, a successful competitive shooter, and a firearms instructor since 2001. His background helps translate the current research into clear, easily understood material with practical ways to implement it and improve performance.

• Origins of Human Instincts and Their Implications
