Hostage takers may have any of a number of different motivations.
Some act impulsively, using other humans as shields or bargaining chips to try to avoid the consequences of their actions.
Other hostage takers might be politically or ideologically motivated.
The role of a hostage negotiator is to resolve the situation peacefully, saving the lives of the hostages and the law enforcement or military personnel charged with taking the hostage takers into custody.
Our instructors are skilled in hostage negotiation and can teach these skills to law enforcement and military, as well as other professionals who might have need of them.
Making it Real
Our backgrounds in military training allows us to craft high-pressure scenarios that give you a chance to test the skills you develop.
In some scenarios, there might be a best outcome that you can use your skills to work toward. In others, you might have no good option and will have to do the best you can.
You’ll never know. All the emotions you’d feel in real life will get stirred up and you’ll have to apply what you’ve learned to get to a peaceful resolution of the crisis.
This training is available to police and military professionals, security firms and other organizations. You’re also welcome to inquire if you want to learn this skill out of personal interest, or use this trading to hone your overall abilities to think fast and constructively in high-pressure negotiations.
