If you have ideas or things you’d like to see — or if you want to help and get more involved — I’d love to hear from you: dan@emergencymind.com

The You Project x The Emergency Mind

Dan Dworkis joins The You Project with Craig Harper to talk performance under pressure, building resilience in individuals and teams, processing difficult events, and being inherently imperfect. Really fun interview — gets a lot into the individual aspects of human performance under pressure.

Counter Piracy Ops: Planing for Bad Things to Happen

Interesting discussion about the differences in philosophy and practical approach between preventing literal seafaring and digital pirates from accessing a space. Great focus on the need to plan for bad things to happen and proactively set up higher order (2nd and 3rd and beyond) rally points for when your initial plans don’t work out. Lots of crossover in the medical world to how we prepare to handle an influx of patients or how we prepared at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
