SUMMARY:The 3 Keys to Beating Dispatcher Stress
DESCRIPTION:9-1-1 telecommunicators are resilient by nature—they’re caregivers to the world!

This presentation underscores the importance of resilience and offers specific tools and strategies for more of it. \nLearning Objectives: \nIn this session\, participants will learn proven ways to: \n\nUnderstand the underlying cause of work-related chronic/traumatic stress\nBring their best to their work life and home life\, every day\nCreate more time for themselves to do the things most important to them \n\n \nPresented by Adam Timm\nFounder/Instructor\n \nAdam Timm is a bestselling author\, keynote speaker and consultant on the topics of personal resilience and peak performance for 9-1-1 telecommunicators.

After leaving the LAPD\, Adam started his training company\, “The Healthy Dispatcher\,” to bring tools for resilience to this challenging profession. \nParticipants in Adam’s training classes and conference sessions praise his energetic and interactive presentation style\, calling his sessions “an awesome learning experience\,” “captivating\, thought-provoking\,” “amazing\,” and “incredibly engaging.” Adam travels nearly 300 days a year presenting training classes\, conference sessions and consulting across the country. \nHe is a board-certified stress management consultant and the author of two books\, including the #1 bestseller\, Stress Is Optional!
