There are nine things the best SAR teams do to consistently and safely succeed on their missions. Your team probably has some, and it is likely they are missing some. They are not related to expertise, technical training, gear and equipment, or even organizational structure. They are related to human behavior and team culture. This (workshop and/or lecture) is about building a team culture of high reliability. Dr. Hammond shows how the right team culture can enhance performance and reduce the impact of stress. It begins with surveying your team and identifying strengths and weaknesses. It continues with having the difficult conversations about how you can better work together. And it ends with a commitment to continuous improvement and follow up. In this workshop/lecture you will 1) Learn the nine characteristics of highly reliable teams. 2) Assess your SAR team using the HRT AI. 3) Build plans to preserve strengths and eliminate weaknesses. 4) Have a specific plan to measure your progress towards becoming a highly reliable team. This workshop/book is based on Dr. Hammond book "Highly Reliable Teams," published in 2024.
