Eddie Davenport

Eddie Davenport spent more than 20 years as a Hollywood Stuntman, ranked in the top 2% of Hollywood stunt performers. He doubled for lead actors including Hugh Jackman and Zachary Levi, and for the characters Wolverine and Superman, across 140+ television episodes and 40+ feature films — among them Superman, Logan, Real Steel, Shazam!, Captain America, The Suicide Squad, Stranger Things and The Walking Dead. He is a Satellite Award winner and a two-time Screen Actors Guild Award nominee for stunt ensemble, on Logan and X-Men: First Class. Stunt work taught him something that has nothing to do with film: the distance between knowing what to do and actually doing it is where most people, and most teams, lose. Eddie now teaches leaders to close that gap. His keynotes pair cinematic storytelling from the set with two tools he built out of the work. The F.E.A.R. Protocol is a four-step decision process — Focus, Evaluate, Act, Review — for making the best available call before hesitation closes the window. The Pressure Profile is a live audience diagnostic that shows every person in the room which of four tendencies they default to when the stakes rise. Eddie speaks at leadership conferences, executive retreats, sales kickoffs and association events, across healthcare, manufacturing, financial services, government and high-performance teams. His work and his story have been featured in Men's Health, Vanity Fair and Radio Times.
