National Response Department 2012 TCT Refresher Session
Operational Risk Management (ORM)
• Accept No Unnecessary Risk
• Accept Necessary Risk Only When Benefits Outweigh Costs
• Make Risk Decisions at the Appropriate Level
• ORM is Just as Critical in Executing as in Planning All Activities

• If your local OIA (Order Issuing Authority) does not have a GAR form requirement use the one on the National Response Department Web site at http://www.cgaux.org/response/_documents/GAR%20Model%20Surface%20Ops.pdf
TCT Elements In Review
• Risk Assessment / Contingency Planning must include: – Complexity of mission – Environmental factors – Crew fitness / selection – Anything else that could impact
• Safety of the crew • The mission

Good News/Bad News
The good news - problems and mishaps always happen to ‘the other guy’
The bad news - to everyone else, YOU are ‘the other guy’

Situational Awareness
We must know what is going on around us to make good decisions.
Plans are critical to success, that is for sure…but we must be ready to change.
This will decrease the likelihood of poor decision making.
TCT Elements In Review
2012 TCT Refresher SessionDepartment of Response
Adaptability The ability to react to changes in conditions, crew fitness, equipment failures, etc.
Based on “situational awareness”.
Leaders do not necessarily have “all the answers”.
Good Leaders do take advantage of everyone’s ideas and experience and remain adaptable to new conditions and challenges.
TCT Elements In Review
2012 TCT Refresher SessionDepartment of Response
Communication Verbal and non-verbal (facial expressions, etc.)
Must ensure that the person or persons we communicate with have a clear understanding of what we wish to convey.
Closing the “feedback” loop. Ask for feedback / observe behavior to be sure the message was received.
The key is a two way expression, either verbally or non-verbally, that confirms the communication process was completed.
TCT Elements In Review

Leadership Leadership is not about giving orders.
Leaders do find ways to obtain the willing participation of others towards accomplishing a goal.
Goal must be consistent with the Coast Guard’s core values as well as consistent with the mission at hand.
Since we cannot “order” anyone to do anything, we must strive to achieve the respect, confidence and loyalty of those entrusted to our care, regardless of position.

AssertivenessBe assertive, but not aggressive.
The aggressive person seeks to bully his/her way though situations for their own ego or self image.
An assertive person cares about the “mission” more than themselves and their ego.
Communicate your concerns, but try to get resolution without stepping on those who disagree.

Decision Making
Making good decisions is really the heart of TCT.
We must act or perform in a manner that maximizes mission success and minimizes risk .
The other elements of TCT all play a role in improving those decisions.
TCT Elements In Review
Decision Making
We define a problem or condition, seek information about that problem, analyze that information, identify alternatives and select alternatives.
Then we measure our success or failure in order to adjust our course of action.
TCT Elements In Review
2012 TCT Refresher SessionDepartment of Response
Decision MakingThis process can take us 20 seconds in
the case of routine decisions, or 20 months in the case of large complex problems.
The process is the same, …the depth of analysis and level of importance is always changing.
