Thinking for impact : a practical guide for special operations forces / by Dr. Emily Spencer. : D2-396/2018E-PDF

"Thinking is a process that we do every day and, like breathing, we are sometimes conscious of it and more often than not we take it for granted. Often when you behave in a careless or inappropriate way, the reasoning, or more appropriately the excuse, is that you were "not thinking". The reality is, however, that you were thinking, you simply were not doing so effectively. Like an elite athlete who learns how to control his or her breathing in order to maximize output, your ability to think more effectively can be practiced and improved upon. Thinking for Impact provides a practical guide for how to do so. Through the use of case studies, hypothetical situations and academic studies, this book highlights ways in which you can improve your thinking and decision-making processes. Everyone can surely benefit from enhanced decision-making and, consequently, this book should appeal to a wide variety of audiences. Nonetheless, this book is specifically designed to help Special Operations Forces (SOF) personnel be better able to determine the best course of action under potentially dynamic, complex and/or stressful situations. Consequently, examples tend to focus on SOF roles, tasks and missions. Ultimately, Thinking for Impact should be considered as a practical guide for improving the cognitive elements associated with decision-making."
