消防员来谈话训练的地方

我们都听到了同样的声明:“部门以公司官员的身份开始和结束。”无论您是否同意这一声明,我们都不能否认公司官员对我们的公司以及最终我们部门的深刻影响和积极的影响。

How we operate and how we train will be dictated by how the company officer lays out his expectations and how the daily routines are performed. When a company officer during a training evolution makes a broad statement to his young crew that "we never enter a building without a charged hoseline", we know what the ramifications will be for the members of his company and the people they are supposed to protect. These attitudes and beliefs will be perpetuated, making our job even more difficult.

It is easy to see how the long term attitude and beliefs will be affected one way or the other by the example set by the company officer. Lazy company officers have lazy crews and working company officers have working crews. I don't know when this got so complicated.?

When the backstep pulls the line off of the rig inadequately and the officer jumps his s***, we have a problem. Is it not the job of the company officer to make sure his crew is ready? Is it not the officers job to ensure that the guys on his truck are proficient at the tasks as simple as pulling a line? Sure the backstepper has a responsibility, but that company officer has a problem with the wrong guy. If that company officer drilled regularly, any deficiencies would have been identified and remediated before they became a problem. It's called knowing your crew.

The way that we get to know our crew is to get to know your crew. That means you, as a company officer, have to invest in your people. You have to "work" with them. That means actually doing things around the fire house and talking. That means eating together and doing regular training drills. It is a relationship and you have to put "quality" time into it. You cannot expect to come in, run a few calls and go home and expect to know who your working with.

In most parts of the country we are fighting less fires. This is dangerous and makes it even more important to drill regularly. The officers of the past had years of actual firefighting experience to lean on and pass on. We are losing that experience and that requires us to train as a crew in order to know what is expected, what our company capabilities are based on available resources and to create those "experiences" that are hard to come by. It all falls on the company officer.

If you ask most companies and officers, there are a few things that really brings a crew together. One, obviously is a good, working fire. Everyone comes back and is pumped up and the stories begin. Second is meaningful training that is inclusive, well planned and relevant. Third is doing projects in the house. No matter what the work is, the crew talks, interacts and generally has a good time while doing work together.

我们不能让我们的工作舒适地超越任务。保持安全和训练。嘿,也许今天摘下手动工具,给他们良好的打磨和清洁。哦,作为船员做。

小心,

杰森

杰森(Jason)的话语。

无论如何,我很少不同意杰森。在这种情况下,我同意这里的大部分内容,但是,您已经忘记了每次旅行中生活的一件小事。我们没有做任何事情就是那么简单!尽管我们中的许多人都竭尽全力变得简单,但似乎我们的等级或更高的人变得简单而困难。我们希望,我们能做的最好的是KTF并推动,有一天它会很简单。恕我直言!

保持安全的兄弟!我手上有很多时间兄弟!

Your right Jeff, you can only control what you can control. There are always some that will make that much more difficult, and like you said, Keep the Faith and push onward.

见你的兄弟,

To Paraphrase Von Clausewitz; "Everything in Fire Fighting is simple, but the simplest things are very difficult."
说得好。我们必须准备好上班,保持身体健康,吃得好。我们必须在每次轮班上进行钻探并检查我们的设备。我们必须批评事件才能知道有效和无效的事件。我们必须承认并拥有我们的缺陷,并通过培训来纠正它们。在紧急情况下,我们通过检查设备,培训,强大的I.C.&部门官员,有组织的公司,在指定的Fireground频道上的良好沟通,360大小的UPS,情境意识,条件和事件意识以及有序的阶层和战术井井有条,我们拥有生存的最佳机会和成功的事件结果。每个人都安全。

-Tome Brennen was fond of teaching us that firefighting is always about the basics. Learn and apply the basics properly and everything else will fall into place.

-The "basics" also apply to management... and it really is that simple. Treat your people well, train them, empower them; embolden them. Look out for them and be their biggest cheerleader and be genuinely concerned for their lives; professional and private. Defend them vigorously and chastise in private. Remember to be their advocate... always.

-I recall a newly promoted chief, who was showing forgetfulness about the rank and file and appearing to sell out to city hall pressure, being told "I understand that you have a responsibility to your employer but you have a sacred义务to the men!"

- 良好的领导力和管理始于公司的官员,有时是“非正式领导者。一个好的领导者认识到这些资产和属性,并利用它们。这确实很简单。一个好的官员了解他的资产和局限性机组人员并利用这一点为了使公司的优势为我们服务的最终用户带来成功的结果,但他永远不会忘记他对他的人民的义务,这是他最大的资产。没有公司或男人领导领导者,这是什么都没有的。对于您的人民,他们会照顾您。

-A good firefighter or officer knows that respect cannot be demand, ordered or even given... it must be earned.

"When the backstep pulls the line off of the rig inadequately and the officer jumps his s***, we have a problem. Is it not the job of the company officer to make sure his crew is ready? Is it not the officers job to ensure that the guys on his truck are proficient at the tasks as simple as pulling a line?当然,Backstepper有责任,但是该公司官员对错误的人有问题。如果该公司官员定期进行钻探,则在问题成为问题之前,任何缺陷都将被确定和修复。这就是认识您的船员。”

这在某种程度上我同意,但像说goes "You can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink" I have trained people before at drills, and asked them questions, and when we were done they said they were comfortable and demonstrated the skills adequately enough, but than the call comes around and the newly acquired skills are tested, and the member screws something up. Is this the end of the world? No, just a member who doesnt use the skill often enough to be proficient at it, and chances are, after screwing up in front of the other crew and you talk to them afterwards about what happened wrong and how they can make it better next time, that mistake will never happen again. That is what I believe dictates a good officer. To me an officer that "Jumps anyones s***" in front of other crew or even in front of civilians and bystanders is just a glory hound. There is no need to rip into anyone when mistakes are made, the lesson is never learned that way. The only thing that comes of that is a secret hatred for the officer and discontent with the job. That firefighter will be increasingly uncomfortable around the officer and his/her crew after that and will not try 100% any more.

Instead, the officer should take them aside and talk about what went wrong and if the member understands why, and if there can be any change made to make it better. This fosters respect for the officer and in the long run makes a better crew. The crew trusts the officer and work hard for them, and the respect is earned. Im not in any way saying that the officer needs to "Baby" the crew, but be firm without an audience. If it involves a threat to life...Thats something that requires a firm and swift reprimand, but than finish it at the station with only the crew to witness it.

另一名军官试图强迫尊重,这只是使事情变得更糟。我曾为两种类型的军官服务,并知道在他人面前被杀死的感觉,及其影响……不尊重。

I try to be the good officer and hope my crew will eventually look up to me, and I hope to "earn" their respect some day as well.

Good Topic brother, Stay Safe.
