Embracing Intent-Based Leadership Lessons from Aviation for Navigating Climate Change (PART 1)

“Two-thirds ahead!” commanded Commander David Marquet aboard the USS Santa Fe.

In response, the second-in-command promptly echoed the order, setting the ship in motion.

However, there was a critical oversight – the Santa Fe, by design, lacked the capability to execute that command.

This incident, as described in the book “Turn the Ship Around” by David Marquet, serves as a compelling illustration of the need for Intent-Based Leadership, and the consequences of a lack of clarity in communicating intent.

In the realm of aviation, Crew Resource Management (CRM) training stands as a cornerstone of our operational preparedness.

Ensuring effective decision-making and communication among the flight crew, CRM training underscores the importance of collaboration, clear communication, and shared situational awareness.

This training is fundamental in cultivating a culture where EVERY member of the flight crew is empowered to contribute to safe and efficient flight operations, aligning seamlessly with the principles of intent-based leadership.
