Stress2Logic: Overcoming Human Stress

Marcus prides himself on being flexible and mentally nimble. He has been involved in true life and death emergencies. When an issue comes up at a conference (i.e., another speaker cancels or a technical issue), he is a problem solver. Those issues, although stressful to a planner, are not going to cause physical injury, and Marcus often steps up to the plate.

Although Marcus uses PowerPoint as a visual element, he teaches from the heart and from experience, communicating his passion to audiences.

Marcus Melnick worked for 35 years in Public Safety Roles. He is a published author, radio show host, self-defense instructor, second generation inventor, and has multiple degrees. He also has taught on the graduate level.
During his career, he focused on protecting children from mass violence, and currently conducts Active Shooter Response Training in addition to the above.
One unique thing about Marcus is that he used to work in the entertainment industry. Past performances (which were comedy) prepared him to engage your audiences in a manner that is light hearted, fun, and educational. In fact, participants have so much fun, they don't even realize that they are learning, and time flies by during his presentations.
Marcus lives in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, with his wife, two teenage boys, and dog (which he talks about in some of his presentations).

Marcus is always available for questions.

Marcus asks for a podium, wireless microphone (if available) and to see the layout of the room before the presentation (so he can effectively move around to make points).
