Incident Command: Tales From the Hot Seat presents a unique
examination of the skills of the on-scene or incident commander who
is in charge of an emergency or major incident. Experienced
commanders from the police and fire services, the armed forces,
civil aviation and the prison service give personal accounts of
their command experiences, discuss their dilemmas and the pressures
they faced, and reveal the demands of leading under extreme
conditions. They share intimate details of cases where their
command skills were tested, ranging from industrial fires, riots,
hostage taking, warfare, peacekeeping, to in-flight emergencies.
Each case ends with lessons learnt and tips for the developing
commander. Additional chapters present expert accounts of the art
of incident command, incident command systems, competencies for
command, as well as reviews of the latest psychological research
into decision making and team work under pressure. The book is an
essential compelling text that captures the essence of incident
command by analyzing command experiences across a range of
professions.
