Situational Awareness Matters!™


Helping individuals and teams understand human factors,
reduce the impact of situational awareness barriers,
and improve decision making under stress.

Jan 20, 2015

I recorded the featured content of this episode a few weeks back so you’ll notice the difference in the sound quality because I was using my standard podcasting microphone.

 

This episode was inspired by a long conversation I had with some firefighters about challenges they are facing with their station alerting system so I decided to dedicate an episode to this potential situational awareness barrier.

 

During this episode I discuss:

1.    The impact loud noises can have on stress levels.

2.    How noise triggers primal defenses.

3.    The long-term impact of noise exposure.

4.    The need to upgrade station alerting systems.
