The Resilience Reset
The resilience reset is just that, a reset. I will completely reset how you see resilience. It’s not just about surviving. Resilience is the ability to adapt to and recover from difficult situations, while maintaining psychological well-being. It's a skill that can be learned and developed, and it involves a combination of thoughts, behaviors, belief systems and actions.
I want to give you six principles I practice in life to help you build a foundation of resilience in your life. Not a false sense of strength, but a life where you gain the capacity to withstand the pressures of life and overcome adversity in any circumstance.
This is not your normal seminar, it gets raw, real and personal. As a widower, father, husband, combat military veteran and fire captain, I’ve been on the front lines of life battling challenges that you are probably facing right now. I’ve navigated many of them successfully, and some we will learn to navigate together.
Jump Seat Leadership Seminar
We cannot continue to let the fire service suffer due to lack of leadership. Jump seat leadership focuses on training and educating personnel in the fire service to lead at the informal level. Without rank or promotion. I cover basic principles of leadership and focus primarily on individuals who do not hold a leadership position, rather we equip and prepare the men and women in the fire service to lead in whatever position they hold. From the apparatus bay floor, to the office door, I aim to change the fire service through foundational leadership.
This seminar is based off my book, Jump Seat Leadership: The Guide to Informal Leadership in the Fire Service. Students will learn the basic principles of formal and informal leadership and how they pertain to the fire service. These are practical steps from real life experiences on how you can effectively and efficiently lead from the jump seat without rank. Also, attendees will walk away with the understanding that they can start leading today, verses waiting to secure a title or promotion to lead. The will gain insight into establishing vision and goals for themselves as they make the decision to lead.
