About this listen
Mike Brown, William Belk and Mike Doss dive into the challenges and evolving practices of simulation-based training. They explore the idea of designing scenarios where even perfect performance doesn’t guarantee success, emphasizing the need to prepare students for unpredictable, high-stress realities without overwhelming beginners. The conversation highlights the important role structured debriefing to foster reflection and growth, while promoting psychological safety to embrace failure as a powerful learning tool. Incorporating resilience training early on is presented as a game changer for building mental toughness and coping strategies before entering the field. Drawing from decades of frontline and educational experience, the speakers advocate for tailored stress exposure to enhance cognitive function under pressure.
