About the Author

Dr. Rodney King, widely known as “Coach,” is a renowned expert in defensive tactics and personal risk management. Recognising the gap in first responders, security & risk managment professionals’ training regarding inner management, he has spent over a decade teaching special forces military operators, law enforcement teams, close protection groups, airline cabin crew, and individuals from various security and risk management sectors how to achieve inner clarity during emergency-stress events.

Dr. King holds fellowships with the Royal Society of Arts, the Institute of Leadership & Management, and the Institute of Strategic Risk Management. He earned his doctorate from the University of Leicester’s School of Business (UK), a global academy for leaders, innovators, and change-makers. As a social scientist, his research focused on the role of mindfulness in leadership performance. He obtained his first master’s degree in leading innovation and change from York St John University’s School of Business (UK). Dr. King completed his undergraduate studies in psychology and recently completed a second master’s degree in health psychology from De Montfort University (UK).

Reviews

"Dr. King’s approach to Inner Defence is a simple and understandable format based on the three elements of academic study and personal and professional experience. As a fellow academic and combat veteran I wish that I had access to this knowledge twenty-five years ago. The things and exercises I learned, would have been invaluable during the peak stress environments and situations I experienced, which crossed the full stress spectrum, from the battlefield to the boardroom.
Having personally recommended Inner Defence to my friends and my colleagues, I have been pleased to see both personal growth and increased resiliency in them in a short period of time."
