Workshop | Improving Operational Decision Making in Incident & Emergency Management: the AFAC National Operational Guidelines on Decision Making
Event overview:
In this workshop we introduce the AFAC National Operational Guidelines on Decision Making and explore how individuals and agencies can use them to improve operational decision making; create more consistent doctrine and training resources; and support a common language to describe, discuss and review decision making practices. The workshop introduces a new model of expert decision making for incident and emergency management (the IEM-DM model) based on more than 70 years of peer-reviewed empirical research. The IEM-DM model, developed through an NHRA funded research project, explains the process of decision making based on the science of how the brain works. Workshop participants will have the opportunity to participate in decision making training based on this model. The IEM-DM model also provides an overarching framework to understand other models of decision making that are in use in incident and emergency management. We will discuss models of decision making used by participants and consider them in the context of the broader framework provided by the IEM-DM model. Finally, we will consider agencies operational doctrine on decision making and explore how this can be complemented by the ‘plug and play’ Figures and Statements supplied in the guidelines.
