In this episode we provide a working definition of situational awareness and take the mystery out of how it is developed and maintained by individuals working in high risk, high consequence environments.
Specifically, we will discuss:
- Perception
- Understanding
- Prediction
- Intuition
- Pattern Matching
- Tacit Knowledge
And we will address some of the reasons why situational awareness can be so challenging to develop and maintain.
