Flawed Situational Awareness: The Stealth Killer of First Responders This program shares the powerful findings of Dr. Gasaway’s extensive research on issues related to first responder decision making and flawed situational awareness. In his review of hundreds of near-miss reports, case studies, line-of-duty death reports and videos he continually found himself being frustrated because there were so many clues, indicators and signs that the incident was going to end in disaster. Yet, for some reason, personnel operating at the incident scene – from company officers to incident commanders – could not see it coming. Or if they did see it coming, they did nothing to alter their course. In his research to understand why first responders were (seemingly) blind and deaf to what was happening right in front of them, Dr. Gasaway uncovered and investigated over one hundred barriers that can destroy situational awareness and flaw decision making. This program focuses on some of the most pervasive situational awareness barriers first responders will face while operating in stress-filled, dynamically-changing environments. Ø

Barriers to be explored and discussed will include:

  • Pre-arrival lens
  • Mission Myopia
  • Staffing issues
  • Normalization of deviance
  • Complacency
  • Overconfidence
  • Command location
  • Command support
  • Mission and goal
  • Culture
  • Confabulation
  • Mind shift
  • Biases
  • Human factors
  • The curse of knowledge
  • Technology o Miscommunications
  • Peer and supervisor pressure
  • Overload
  • Task fixation
  • Task saturation

… and more
