Diagnosing & Repairing Performance
When performance fails, the obvious explanation is often: the technique didn’t work. But the technique may not be the problem.
A practitioner may fail because they recognized the problem too late, incorrectly identified what was happening, selected the wrong response, or lacked the technical ability to execute it. Each is a different failure—and each requires a different repair.
In this webinar, Tom Sotis presents a practical framework for diagnosing exactly where performance broke down and determining what needs to change. Using examples from empty-hand self-defense and knifework, you’ll learn to distinguish between Technical, Recognition, Identification, and Decisional failures, then select training methods that address the actual problem rather than simply adding more repetitions.
The objective is straightforward: Diagnose → Repair → Measure → Repeat.
If you train, teach, or coach performance under pressure, this webinar will help you stop guessing at what went wrong and start repairing the part that actually failed.
