The Resilient Journey

When we think about the art of de-escalation, we usually think about high stress jobs like law enforcement or hostage negotiators. But this week you will hear how deliberate de-escalation is a skillset that we can use during a disruption or a crisis.   Hello everyone and welcome to Episode 192 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week, we welcome Ty Campbell, a 33-year law enforcement veteran, to talk to us about the real-world power of de-escalation.   Ty kicks things off with a gripping story from his career—one where calm thinking and the right words changed everything. He then walks us through how the techniques in his new book can be applied by resilience professionals, emergency managers, and crisis leaders alike.   Ty shares practical advice for spokespersons facing hostile crowds and common mistakes people make when trying to de-escalate without training.   Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!  We sure do appreciate it!

Have you ever thought about how mature your training is? What does a good training program look like? This week's guest has laid out a six level training maturity model that will help you take your training...and your program to the next level. Hello everyone and welcome to Episode 191 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week, we welcome Lester Chng to talk to us about the six rungs of training. Lester explains that as we are intentional about maturing our training, we evolve from developing individual competencies to team building through tabletop exercises and on to functional exercises. Mark and Lester walk through the six rungs, level by level and explain what this maturity process looks like. Lester warns that a program like this takes extensive leadership buy-in. And Mark shares a related story and offers some advice on how to naturally navigate through the rungs and how to mature your training over time.   Be sure to follow The Resilient Journey!  We sure do appreciate it!
