-
- Health & Fitness
Imagine approaching a vehicle or entering a building, not knowing if the people inside wanted to do you harm. The ability to maintain composure in high risk situations like this can be the difference between going home to your family or being rushed to the hospital.
That statement isn’t just hyperbole, it’s woven into Tyson Shumway’s daily life. Tyson has worn a number of hats along with his body armor over his 16 year career as a police officer. He began his career on the Southside of Los Angeles before transitioning to SWAT, where he was a team member for 7 years. In addition, he has also taught cadets at the police academy and is currently on patrol in Sacramento. His passion for teaching has carried over to his off-duty time where he conducts firearms training for Fieldcraft Survival and is a Facilitator with Art of Coaching.
In today’s episode, we:
Discuss how a law enforcement professional approaches de-escalating conflict
Learn how to manage our emotions in tense situations
Weigh the costs of engaging in office politics
