About Survival Response
Most organizations do not fail because they lack information.
They fail because critical decisions are delayed, diluted, or made under pressure without clear judgment about risk.
Survival Response exists to help leaders think clearly about violence risk and human threat exposure before uncertainty becomes consequence.
I work with executive leadership teams, boards, and risk owners when safety decisions carry legal, operational, and reputational weight. My role is not to deliver checklists or training programs. It is to provide external judgment, informed by real-world experience, that helps leaders identify exposure early and make defensible decisions under stress.
My perspective is shaped by more than 30 years in law enforcement and private security, including service as a SWAT Commander and Police Sergeant.
Those roles required making decisions with incomplete information,
compressed timelines, and real human stakes.
That experience formed a practical understanding of how risk unfolds, how organizations hesitate, and how small decision failures compound.
Today, I apply those lessons in an advisory capacity, helping leaders translate complex threat environments into clear, actionable judgment. This work sits upstream of policy, training, and response. It focuses on leadership accountability, decision clarity, and timing, where outcomes are ultimately determined.
I am typically brought in when organizations are:
-
Evaluating workplace violence or human threat exposure
-
Facing uncertainty about prevention, responsibility, or readiness
-
Preparing leaders to make high-consequence decisions under pressure
-
Seeking independent perspective before an incident forces action
My work spans corporate, healthcare, educational, and public-sector environments, where leadership judgment, not tactical response, defines outcomes.
Survival Response is not a training company.
It is an advisory practice focused on helping leaders recognize risk early, decide deliberately, and act before the margin for error disappears.
If you are responsible for decisions where people, safety, and organizational credibility intersect, the first step is simply a conversation.
