SH102: Decision Making- How do we explain our decisions to others?

In this episode, we explore the challenges of explaining decisions to others, especially when they don’t share the same knowledge or experience. Jenny recounts a personal story about deciding not to dive a local canyon system again due to safety concerns, despite it seeming straightforward to others. The incident highlights the importance of situational awareness, good communication, and building a shared mental model within a dive team to ensure everyone understands the reasons behind decisions. This helps prevent misunderstandings and promotes safer diving practices.   Original blog: https://www.thehumandiver.com/blog/decision-making-how-do-we-explain-our-decisions-to-others   Links: The Dunnig Kruger effect https://www.thehumandiver.com/blog/incompetent-and-unaware-you-don-t-know-what-you-don-t-know Briefing and Debriefing video https://youtu.be/JTM_Lh7HtmA?si=H4ZSo4AiIQlpZn_e&t=585 The DEBrIEF model https://www.thehumandiver.com/blog/debriefing   Tags:  English, Brief, Debrief, Decision Making, Decision-Making, Jenny Lord, Teamwork
