Overview
Incident Leadership offers hands-on experience leading a response during an escalating all-hazards incident. Students take on leadership responsibilities in simulation blocks – lasting 16 hours over five days – mirroring events in an emerging incident. Iterative learning cycles and a variety of perspectives provide students with opportunities to learn, practice, and improve command skills and leadership behaviors.
- Command Presence
- Commander’s Guidance and Leader’s Intent
- Team Communication and Feedback
- Effective Teams
- Managing Error
- Operational Tempo
- Mission Command
This high-intensity program helps participants learn strategies for building operational synergy in temporary teams, such as managing diverse resources, interfacing with community cooperators, and leading operational planning extending into a strategic time frame.
Participants come away with firsthand experience applying the leadership skills required to put the incident command system into actual practice. They gain confidence in their ability to hit the ground running as part of a quickly assembled incident management team. This program builds new trigger points and recognition skills that are directly transferable to future operations and incidents.
