(a) The main aspects of resilience development can be described as the ability to:
(1) learn (âknowing what has happenedâ);
(2) monitor (âknowing what to look forâ);
(3) anticipate (âfinding out and knowing what to expectâ); and
(4) respond (âknowing what to do and being capable of doing itâ).
(b) Operational safety is a continuous process of evaluation of and adjustment to existing and future conditions. In this context, and following the description in (a), resilience development involves an ongoing and adaptable process including situation assessment, self-review, decision and action. Training on resilience development enables crew members to draw the right conclusions from both positive and negative experiences. Based on those experiences, crew members are better prepared to maintain or create safety margins by adapting to dynamic complex situations.
(c) The training topics in (f)(1) of AMC1Â ORO.CC.115(e) are to be understood as follows:
(1) Mental flexibility
(i) The phrase âunderstand that mental flexibility is necessary to recognise critical changesâ means that crew members are prepared to respond to situations for which there is no set procedure.
(ii) The phrase âreflect on their judgement and adjust it to the unique situationâ means that crew members learn to review their judgement based on the unique characteristics of the given circumstances.
(iii) The phrase âavoid fixed prejudices and over-reliance on standard solutionsâ means that crew members learn to update solutions and standard response sets, which have been formed on prior knowledge.
(iv) The phrase âremain open to changing assumptions and perceptionsâ means that crew members constantly monitor the situation, and are prepared to adjust their understanding of the evolving conditions.
(2) Performance adaptation
(i) The phrase âmitigate frozen behaviours, overreactions and inappropriate hesitationâ means that crew members correct improper actions with a balanced response.
(ii) The phrase âadjust actions to current conditionsâ means that crew membersâ responses are in accordance with the actual situation.
Guidance on resilience development for crew training: learn, monitor, anticipate, respond; adapt to dynamic situations; mental flexibility and performance adaptation explained.
