In the Air Force Special Warfare pipeline and beyond, you will be wholly immersed in training every day you show up to work. So, how do we design training? What's the science behind how we train?
We brought on Dr. Preston Cline, founder of the Mission Critical Team Institute (MCTI), to discuss the importance of cultivating and developing instructors in the military. He highlights the challenges of transitioning from operator to instructor and emphasizes the need for humility, curiosity, and empathy in training. Preston also addresses the cultural challenges within the Air Force and the importance of validating instructors with scientific data.
He emphasizes the value of repetition and experience in instruction and the need for job creation and cultivation of NCOs throughout their careers. Additionally, he discusses the impact of the hard life on special operators and the need for honest conversations about long-term effects.
The conversation explores the challenges and opportunities for senior NCOs in providing value and influencing change within the military institution. It emphasizes the importance of flexibility, communication, and understanding the language of officers to accomplish meaningful outcomes. The discussion also highlights the need for humility, continuous learning, and maintaining a sense of humor throughout one's career.
The chapters cover topics such as the challenges of providing value as a senior NCO, working with officers, solving problems for one up and one down, the importance of trust, learning from mistakes as an instructor, and taking responsibility for the hard path.
