Crew Resource Management Training

Crew Resource Management Training: Competence, Cognition, and Systems for Airline Pilots delivers an evidence-based approach to Crew Resource Management (CRM) that moves beyond traditional conceptual frameworks to address the realities of modern aviation. It challenges the 'one-size-fits-all' approach to CRM training and introduces a competence-based framework rooted in systems thinking and evolutionary psychology.

This new edition expands the discussion beyond individual pilot behaviour to encompass aviation as an ecosystem. The book offers guidance for personal skills development within the competency paradigm while examining new case studies, including updated analysis of the B-737MAX and regulatory capture.

Airlines, pilots, aviation industry professionals, and training organisations will benefit from insights into organisational design and alternative approaches to training that can be immediately applied to enhance safety outcomes, operational efficiency, and organisational resilience in today's rapidly evolving aviation environment.
