Deciding
Good decisions need time to look at the situation, the options and their risks. Structured methods help a crew think together, for example FOR-DEC (Facts, Options, Risks and benefits, Decision, Execution, Check) or DODAR (Diagnose, Options, Decide, Assign, Review).
Watch for traps: plan continuation (pressing on with the plan as conditions get worse), confirmation bias (seeing only what supports what you already believe) and get-there-itis.
