In this live 55min group coaching call, Brian Cain, MPM is joined by Brittany Loney, cognitive performance coach to elite Warriors, to talk about the mindset, routines, and training of elite warriors.  Brittany has a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology and Learning Systems from The Florida State University, an M.A. in Kinesiology with an emphasis on performance psychology from California State University, Fresno, an M.S. in Exercise Science from Florida State University, and a B.S. in Criminal Justice from Texas State University where she was also a NCAA Division 1 basketball player.  Brittany is the director and creator of the Elite Cognition and Human Optimization (ECHO) program at Core One. She has over 18 years of experience training high performers from a vast array of communities, such as elite warriors, Olympic athletes, high-level coaches, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and C-Suite Executives.  For the past 13+ years, Brittany has been developing and implementing cognitive training programs within the national security and government sectors. She helped develop and taught curriculum for NATO’s Inaugural Mental Performance and Resiliency Course.  Brittany focuses her efforts towards serving those who operate within dynamic high stakes environments where people are a critical capability and human error is a legitimate risk to self or mission.  Her specialty is building, refining, and implementing large-scale performance programs and thrives in environments where the concept of cognitive performance is novel. She routinely consults with an array of personnel, from military to sports to business, to bring about the effective assimilation of cognitive performance principles to advance both individual and organizational effectiveness.  Over her career, Brittany and her team were embedded within highly selective hiring processes and arduous training pipelines. During this time, they refined a 360 degree approach to developing adaptive experts across a multitude of domains. The team worked extensively with trainees, instructors, course planners, and leadership to assimilate deliberate practice principles, adaptability research, and growth cultivation throughout the entire developmental process.  Brittany will share some of the best practices and lessons learned garnered through their integration with some of the nation’s most exceptional training. Maximum cohesive functioning is a prerequisite for any team to be greater than the sum of its parts. Over the past decade, Brittany and her team were immersed in organizations where their program was leveraged to facilitate desired cultural shifts and organizational end-states.  She will discuss interpersonal adaptability and adjusting communication styles, building unsung hero attributes, and refining team culture, values, systems, and processes to ensure optimal collective performance. Brittany looks forward to sharing with our community best practices and lessons learned related to training adaptive experts and building cultures that raise the tide.
