Identifying Resource Management Skills for Airline Pilots

Abstract

There is a growing awareness of the importance of resource management skills related to decision making, team coordination, and planning, especially in organizations where work teams perform complex, timeconstrained, and critical tasks. Much of the resource management research and implementation has focused on the performance of individuals within the context of teams. Organizations need a more effective approach to the analysis and training of complex resource management skills at both the individual and team levels.
