The saying "all to say GO because no one said NO" is a well-known slogan for HAA crews to use as a means of expression where everyone on the crew has a say in whether to take a flight or not. But how does someone speak up if he/she feels he/she can’t or are not willing to speak up for any number of reasons only they may know? Now we have a situation where ALL say GO, Because NO-ONE said NO. And this is far more dangerous. This is the paradox found on teams called “The Abilene Paradox”. Whether in the helicopter, the emergency department, the office or at home, the Abilene paradox can lead disastrous results for teams, crews, patients, or bystanders. Come join this session as we take a humorous look at this not-so humorous-paradox that can afflict teams and crews of all types; from those that have been together for a while to those new to the team.
Learning Objectives:
Speak up for themselves better during the Go-NoGo Decision
Understand their Risk Tolerance in accepting a flight they don't want to accept
