2. Ambitious goal: to train high-performance decision-makers

Operational situations are often characterized by their kinetics and magnitude (and by extension the severity of their effects). The greater these two factors are, the more difficult it is to control events. The responses deployed by responders, and more particularly by decision-makers, therefore require mastery of :

• situation analysis to understand what is happening and what could happen;

• assessing the issues at stake to understand what will or could be impacted;

• defining objectives in order to prioritize actions and avoid unnecessarily "dispersing" resources which, by definition, are initially limited;

• monitoring results in order to adapt the system;

• and time in general.
