Non-technical Skills in Aviation
At the origin of many errors and accidents, as highlighted by studies and analyses, there may be factors linked to soft skills - such as the ability to communicate effectively, leadership, decision making - rather than technical skills.
The first considerations on non-technical skills applied to the specific field of aviation date back several decades and are connected to the history of the “crew resources management”, a concept outlined by the author of “The Human Factor in Aircraft Accidents”, David Beaty.
Although much has changed since then, especially in terms of technological aids and tools, soft skills - intended as the set of cognitive, personal and social skills that are integrated with the technical-operational abilities of operators and professionals - continue to play a crucial role in the process of continuous improvement of the individual performance and the safety levels in an organization.
The course is aimed at top and middle management committed to the safety and provides an overview of a fundamental set of non-technical skills to enable participants to consolidate a vision that values these skills as a priority in their professional development alongside technical-operational skills and at the same time promotes safer and more effective operational practices.
