Presented at the 2021 ALERRT Conference in Nashville, TN

There is a famous quote from Heraclitus that says out of 100 people, nine are the fighters but one is the warrior “and he will bring the others [99] back.”  We should at least work to be a “fighter” when disaster strikes.  We can accomplish this through situational awareness, a winning mindset and a constant pursuit of improved resilience.  The question is how do we become “the One”?  This presentation examines the traits of people who notably perform(ed) well in high stress situations, then looks at how these traits can be adapted and adopted by any layperson to improve leadership in high stress environments.
