Situational Decision Making

Image Based Decisional Drills Instructor

Making a confident, efficient, decisive, & explosive FIRST decision in potentially dangerous situation is CRITICAL. There are very few training exercises for the private citizen that focus on making lethal, less than lethal, and non-lethal decisions quickly. This class is intended as a step toward filling the gap in learning how to make those decisions in the very limited amount of time you have once the bad guy chooses you. Your actions need to be confident, quick, and decisive.

The Situational Decision Making class stems from the Image Based Decisional Drills learning system. This class offers personal guides to help strengthen your decision process, diagnose what’s happening, and make the correction with the use of an interactive presentation and hands on props.

We will crawl, walk, run, and then sprint with quick cognitive stacking of decisions and tool cycling.

This class will help you learn to assess the situation using a mental simulation for a plausible course of action, allowing you to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the strategies in the content of the scenarios.

As your own first responder, you are responsible for a wide array of skill sets. Seeing, recognizing, and believing danger is the first task. Having a plan for avoidance, deselection, and escalation are next. The first time you have to use verbal commands, put an object between you and another person, deal with a nuisance, identify a possible threat in the dark, or use non-lethal or lethal force should NOT be when your safety is on the line. You MUST practice all of these skills ahead of time.

BENEFITS:

  • Visual cueing, pre-need decision making, tool cycling, distance management, and strategy changes that can be practiced on or off the range.
  • Pressure testing under realistic time constraints with feedback for improvement.
  • Beneficial ON or OFF the range, the actual mechanics of shooting can be practiced separately while the IBDD drills will help with tool handling and selection, therefore a plastic trainer, or SIRT training pistol is a suitable substitute.
  • When you work in a group you not only get the experience of your own scenario but you get to mentally work through theirs as well.

All levels of experience are welcome. The benefits are the same for everybody. The more experience you have, the more tools can be introduced.

This NOT a combatives class or close quarters class.
NO LIVE OC/PEPPER SPRAY EXPOSURE. NO LIVE FIREARMS.
