One of the most precious resources we have is our time. Where we spend our time says a lot about what we value and where our priorities lie. We will soon challenge you track your time in your leadership journal. The goal of that challenge will be to ensure your time management aligns with your value system.
Just as time is at the center of our decision-making process in fire (the time wedge), each one of us has time at the center of our lives. So let's look how time biases affect our planning.
Take a moment to ponder Meghan Sullivan (University of Notre Dame) talk about time biases on Elucidations, a University of Chicago philosophy podcast.
Wildland Fire Leadership Challenge - Digging a Little Deeper
- How might time biases affect our decision-making when we are conducting fire operations?
- How far into the past or future do your limits of time stretch affect your decisions?
- Are time biases helpful or hurtful? How might we work together to make the present a better place where we can come together as teams, communities, and nations?
