Effective Leadership in Emergency Situations
Impact of Commander's Demeanour
As a commander, your behaviour significantly influences both your own team and collaborating services:
Remaining Calm and Collected
Key Leadership Trait: It's crucial to maintain composure, which requires time, energy, and deliberate effort.
After receiving critical information, taking a brief pause outside the command group allows for effective decision-making.
Managing Interactions
Ensuring Team and Inter-agency Cooperation: Address any disruptive behaviour promptly to foster a collaborative environment:
Directly challenge aggressive behaviour by promoting a unified approach: "Let's take a moment to assess and work together towards patient care and extraction."
By demonstrating calmness and promoting collaboration, commanders enhance operational effectiveness and inter-agency coordination during emergencies.
