In this powerful episode of Impactful Realities, host Jason Jerald sits down with Dr. Phillip Mangos, CEO of Adaptive Immersion, to explore how immersive training in high-risk environments can literally save lives—and how to prove it with hard numbers.
Phillip breaks down how Adaptive Immersion helps organizations—from military to manufacturing—build XR training that prepares employees for the rare, dangerous, and high-stakes moments that can’t be practiced with traditional training. From active shooter simulations to chemical spills and aviation incidents, Phillip shares how data-driven ROI models, behavioral DNA mapping, and smart scenario generation allow even rare incidents to be trained and measured meaningfully.
🧠 What You’ll Learn:
• Why rare events like near-misses and black swan incidents can be measured—and how
• How to use performance-based ROI models to justify XR investments to stakeholders
• Why the first six months on a job are the most dangerous—and how to target training accordingly
• How to turn raw XR data into clear charts that speak to executives, safety officers, and decision-makers
• Why combining field expertise with scientifically-backed methods is essential to building XR that works
Whether you’re an XR developer, safety leader, or enterprise innovator, this episode will help you move past the hype and start building training programs that deliver real-world outcomes—and prove it.
