The Latest…
I started a new project on Substack. It’s for people who work and lead in a high risk environment. American Fire Saga is about the Yarnell Hill Fire and the legacy of learning that can come out of it. We will explore human factors, risk, history, operational learning and investigations.
Four years after serving as Lead Investigator of the Yarnell Hill Fire, I went back to the accident site, determined to find an answer. That’s where Season 1 opens. Here’s the link to Post #1: “First Time Back…”
Risk Communication Protocols
I am excited to bring you the Risk Communication Protocols (RCP) training guide!
RCPs are all about building resilience and communication on your team or crew. To do that you just answer 4 Questions, by the end of that you’ve built a set of RCPs for your crew. Then you just train with your RCPs and update them over time. I walk you through it step-by-step in the training guide.
It was part of my most recent book Communciation When It Counts. I decided to break out the RCP section so it’s easy to download, print, write on, and forward it to other people who could use it.
I look forward to hearing from you on how you answered the 4 Questions, and how the RCPs worked for you!
