        1. More confident especially in situations of uncertainty, risk and ambiguity – the very situations most people shy away from.

        2. Able to lead others with greater authority, confidence and effect, particularly in those difficult circumstances where other leaders tend to have a knee jerk reaction.

        3. Be more decisive when others don’t know what to do next.

        4. Able to solve the problems that others put on the ‘too hard to deal with’ pile.

5. More resilient to those events that normally kick people into a negative emotional reaction.

6. More persuasive and convincing in any situation

7. Become a master of ambiguity and learn the secrets of the professional leaders who deal with emergencies, disasters and crises on a daily basis from the people who train them.
