Do you want to have fun learning about yourself and your contribution to team and organisational success? Do you want to deal with uncertainty in a dynamic, stressful and emotive environment? Do you want to develop skills and strategies and be able to take away tools that help you in your team and organisational operating space? Do you want to open your own personal window to how you operate in a stressful and novel environment? This is what I am offering for people who can make it to London on 8 and/or 9 January. 09:00-17:00. 8 January - High-Velocity Learning LAB (Individual/Team). Four teams of four in a competition with each other for a prize. You can come alone or bring your team of four with you. Four missions of varying complexity, all to develop hashtag #nontechnicalskills and hashtag #empathy within a team, all taking place in a psychologically safe environment. 16 places total, of which 6 places have been reserved. 9 January - High-Velocity Learning LAB (Team/Organisation). This is a slightly different approach and it is based on mission control, up to four mission commanders looking after an operational team each. The goal is to colonise a planet using four operational teams. Like the real world, there are time lags in information transfer, there are incomplete pictures, there are goal conflicts, there are assumptions. The outcome is a set of tools and strategies that we co-create that you can use in your operational space. 16 places, of which 5 have already been reserved. The normal cost for these open courses is £550pp. There is an early bird offer of £250 until 8 December. You can do both days or just one day. Places are limited though. 8 January information page: https://lnkd.in/eEGagYAW 8 January direct booking link: https://lnkd.in/eAvfng7v 9 January information page: https://lnkd.in/eKM4gr-9 9 January booking link: https://lnkd.in/ecksDP5a These programmes have been used for hashtag #nontechnicalskills and hashtag #crewresourcemanagement training, firefighting team and incident control centre training, software team development, hashtag #healthcare team development, hashtag #diving team development in sports and military teams. This is not your normal team training. After this, you will see the world differently. You will know not only what to address but, more importantly, how to make the improvements. Drop me a PM if you want to book more than one person on to the sessions.

We've been asked a number of times about what the #interpersonalskillsLAB is like and what it can provide for those in CRM/NTS operational and training roles in #military, emergency services, and non-military #aviation. To tie in with a #humanfactors in Military Aviation conference taking place on 3-4 December nearby, we are running an open demo at The Raven Hotel, Hook, Hampshire on 2 December from 13:00-17:00. There is a £250 fully refundable deposit (you attend, you get refunded). There will be refreshments between 12:30-13:00. Places are limited to 16 (to support 4 teams of 4) with 8 places reserved for MOD personnel, and 8 for non-MOD personnel. Three highly interactive and engaging missions where you will discover several things about yourself and how the system can be used to develop non-technical skills and crew resource management in many different domains. "This one-day programme taught as much as I could deliver in three days of traditional team development for my firefighting teams" "The course is very introspective - be prepared to feel utterly unravelled but unconditionally supported at the same time!" "It makes such a difference to 'do' rather than talk about it."

What is it that all high-performance teams have in common? It's a simple tool and process that digs into: - what went well, - why, - what needs to be improved, - and how will that happen? The after-action review or DEBrIEF. The goal is to create rapid insights into the learning opportunities from the task that has just taken place. In high-performance teams, it is a non-negotiable activity. The task is not finished until the debrief takes place. If I were to single out the key learning from the 100s of face-to-face simulation courses I have run, it would be the importance of the debrief to help the rapid learning and development that happens. In the right environment, debriefs can often feel uncomfortable because they are unearthing things we might not like to hear. However, if we want to improve and grow, then such candid conversations are essential. I often refer to Kim Scott's Radical Candour when discussing critical debriefs. If the team believe that you care about them and you are looking to challenge them so they grow, holding up the key belief in mutual accountability, then you can pretty much say anything and it will be taken as a learning opportunity. Note the language I have used. If the debrief is to find out what went wrong, if nothing went wrong, the value of the debrief disappears because we don't need to run. 'Wrong' is also a normative word - wrong in whose eyes? If we are continually looking to learn, and identifying ways to do that, then the DEBrIEF continues to have value. DEBrIEFs and guided discovery go hand-in-hand. I don't have the answers to your problems, but together we can find them with open and curious questions. If you want to grab a complementary copy of the DEBrIEF guide, you can do so from this link. https://lnkd.in/efeWrb6Y. Keep an eye out for something else coming up soon which will allow you to supercharge this process.
