Communication during a crisis

Communicating during a crisis is its own skill all by itself. We’re going to talk about some principles that can help you get it right whether you use radios professionally in public safety, aviation, or the military–or if you are a private citizen trying to get that 911 call out in a hurry.

Ideas in here to think about: “Aviate, Navigate, Communicate.” Don’t be “that guy” on the radio, take one step back from the crisis when you click that button. “Push to talk, not to think.” -A friend we know. Finally, think about how communication strategies are also leadership strategies–Clear out some of that fog and friction, and bring calm to the chaos.

Teaching the Enemy: Lessons from The Dragons and the Snakes

It’s Chess AND Checkers–Tactics and Strategy Unite!

Why do we focus so much on tactics and so little on strategy? In this episode, Mike and Jim tackle the divide between street-level action and big-picture thinking. Drawing on lessons from policing, the military, and community crime prevention, they explore how individual cops, community members, and leaders can influence criminal decision-making—not just react to it.

Topics include resource constraints, the Broken Windows theory, and strategies for shifting offender perceptions to prevent crime before it occurs.
