A behavioral science framework teaching leaders to read behavior accurately, respond deliberately, and influence outcomes intentionally.
Most leadership training stops at communication. Reset Your PACE™ goes further. The central question of this training: given what this person is doing right now — what is the most effective response available to me?
Developed by Dr. Dianne Cameron, Psy.D., behavioral psychologist, former professional killer whale trainer, and active sworn law enforcement professional.
Predictive Certainty
Read behavioral signals before they escalate and assess the activated variables accurately. Leaders who see what's driving behavior early enter every interaction with a positional advantage.
High-Agency Influence
Recognize your conditioned response and choose a deliberate influence strategy. Leaders who respond from strategy rather than reflex determine the authorship of the outcome.
Organizational Stability
Reinforce the behavioral changes that last. The cumulative effect of leaders applying the PACE framework is measurable in culture, retention, team performance, and the quality of decisions made under pressure.
Read the Signals. Master the Loop. Influence the Outcome.
The Art and Science of Behavioral Insight Intelligence™.
I have a very precise set of skills — the ability to read behavior accurately, anticipate where it is heading, and choose how to respond in a way that deliberately influences the outcome. I can teach you those skills.
Those skills are the foundation of Behavioral Insight Intelligence™: a framework that moves beyond communication technique to give leaders a systematic, evidence-based method for real-time behavioral assessment and deliberate influence. Forged in environments where the cost of a misread signal carries real consequence.
A proprietary, evidence-based decision loop that turns behavioral observation into deliberate influence.
PERCEIVE: Read the behavioral signals others miss before they become destabilizing patterns.
ASSESS: Identify the activated variables driving behavior — and predict what comes next.
CHOOSE: Replace the automatic conditioned response with a deliberate influence strategy matched to those variables.
EMPOWER: Reinforce the behavioral changes that last through precision reinforcement that secures performance.
Applying Behavioral Insight Intelligence Across High-Stakes Environments
Executive Leaders & Corporations
Equipping senior leaders to read behavioral signals early, assess the variables driving organizational dynamics, and lead with deliberate, composed influence.
Justice & Public Safety Operations
Building the perceptual and behavioral skills that keep professionals ahead of escalation — maintaining command presence and influencing outcomes under pressure.
Academic & Educational Leadership
Strengthening the behavioral read that builds trust, presence, and genuine engagement in complex learning and institutional environments.
Professionals, Teams & Groups
Developing the behavioral intelligence to navigate high-pressure dynamics, sustain steadiness under stress, and lead effectively through disruption and change.
About Dr. Dianne Cameron
Dr. Dianne Cameron — Behavioral Psychologist | Creator of Reset Your PACE™
Most people see behavior as a reaction. I see it as a blueprint.
As a Behavioral Psychologist, I bridge the science of behavior with the art of leadership. My work helps leaders move beyond authority and control to develop Behavioral Insight Intelligence™ (BII): the ability to read behavioral signals accurately, respond deliberately, and influence outcomes intentionally.
My expertise wasn’t built through academic study alone. It was forged in environments where the cost of a misread signal was absolute.
For more than 25 years, I have applied the science of behavior across worlds that rarely meet:
The Deep: Training 10,000-pound killer whales, where influence is built solely on trust, timing, and reinforcement—never coercion.
The Field: Navigating the complex behavioral loops of criminal justice and probation, where de-escalation is a life-safety skill.
The Boardroom: Guiding executive teams through disruption that destabilizes performance, identity, and trust.
Whether I am working with an apex predator, an individual in an interview room, or an executive navigating complexity, the challenge is the same—to look past surface noise, identify the activated variables, and Reset Your PACE™.
My work is grounded in evidence-based behavioral science and includes a peer-reviewed publication in OMEGA. I am committed to advancing the scientific understanding of human behavior and meaning-making while translating theory into practical application for leaders operating under real pressure.
Today I work with leaders in corporations, law enforcement, justice and corrections, and education — environments where misreading the room isn't an option. I teach the perceptual discipline required to read behavior accurately, respond deliberately, and influence toward a desirable outcome with precision.

THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND RESET YOUR PACE™
Most leadership models fail the moment pressure rises. When stakes are high, perception narrows, stress spikes, and leadership defaults to authority and control.
But control is not influence.
Behavioral Insight Intelligence™ moves leadership beyond reaction. Grounded in the Reset Your PACE™ framework, this work provides a repeatable process for moments when decision-making becomes reactive and influence is most easily lost— returning the leader to deliberate choice and intentional influence when it matters most.
Whether navigating organizational disruption, leading in law enforcement or public safety, or stabilizing educational environments, the objective remains the same: read behavior accurately, respond deliberately, and influence outcomes intentionally.
Training Programs
Reset Your PACE™: Organizational & Institutional Leadership
For corporations, law enforcement, educational institutions, and any organization where leaders operate under pressure.
Leaders leave this program with a repeatable four-phase decision loop for every high-stakes interaction. A systematic, evidence-based process grounded in behavioral science, applied to real scenarios drawn from actual organizational contexts across every sector you serve.
What participants leave with:
— The ability to read behavioral signals accurately and assess the activated variables predicting what comes next
— A deliberate influence strategy matched to those variables rather than a conditioned automatic response
— An observable language documentation standard that protects leaders, employees, and the organization
— A Behavioral Signals Field Guide for ongoing reference after the training
Format: Full day | 8.0 Professional Development Hours | 25-item written examination | 80% passing standard | SHRM and ATD aligned | In-person, instructor-led
Reset Your PACE™: Executive Leadership Edition
For C-suite, senior executives, and board-facing leaders.
At the executive level the behavioral environment changes fundamentally. Signals are curated before they arrive. Agendas are present before anyone sits down. The pulls toward automatic response are stronger and the consequences of misreading are greater. This program extends the Reset Your PACE™ framework with executive-specific predictive variables and receiver pulls — giving senior leaders a systematic tool for reading not just individual interactions but the organizational system shaping the information that reaches them.
What participants leave with:
— The ability to identify when behavioral signals have been curated before arrival and respond accordingly
— A framework for recognizing the executive-specific variables active in every high-stakes interaction
— Deliberate resistance strategies for the automatic responses most dangerous at the executive level
— An individual application of the PACE framework to a real current leadership situation
Format: Half day | 4.0 Professional Development Hours | Individual application workshop | Optional take-home assessment | Designed for C-suite, senior executives, and board-facing leaders
Advisory & Coaching
Executive Advisory
Strategic, confidential behavioral calibration during high-stakes leadership cycles.
A private advisory relationship built around the specific demands of your leadership context. Through disciplined application of Reset Your PACE™ this work sharpens decision clarity, anticipates escalation patterns before they compound, and protects influence and agency under pressure.
Format: Cadence and scope customized to your leadership objectives and timeline.
Navigating Disruption: Strategic Stability & Meaning
For professionals, teams, and groups navigating organizational disruption, profound loss, or identity transition.
Some disruption is visible — restructuring, leadership transitions, burnout, career plateauing. Some is less named but equally destabilizing — loss of institutional trust, or disruption that reaches beyond performance into who you are as a leader.
Both affect perception, decision-making, and the ability to lead effectively in real time.
This work applies the Reset Your PACE™ framework to restore behavioral stability, protect agency, and rebuild the foundation from which deliberate influence is possible. It is grounded in the recognition that meaning-making and operational performance are not separate concerns — they are the same work.
Format: Six to twelve one-hour sessions delivered over three to six months. Available in individual or small-group format.
