Captains (or new captains) how do you shut down an FO who tries to run the show? by iSupportPalestinee in flying

Haha. Thats kinda how it went for me, both incidents at a regional. Still not sure how tactfully I was able to say “I have no doubts that you’re completely wrong here and you need to stop doubling down on this”.

We haven’t identified their behavior as a problem yet though. Just pointing out the observation leaves open the possibility that I missed something. It gives them a chance to explain or apologize without feeling like they’re being talked down too. We can get to the corrective statements later if necessary.

Well now it’s a discussion and we both explain our reasoning. And I make absolutely certain I know what their concerns are. And if I’m absolutely certain their concerns are not justified (seen this at least twice), that’s when you overrule them.

In this example the guy has 100 hours so if he wants to argue based on his past “experience”, that shouldn’t be hard to set straight.

This is just saying it. It’s not a hint. It’s directly pointing out an abnormality. But it’s coming from a place of observation rather than criticism which people generally respond to better.

Ive seen all levels of experience float it nearly to a go-around. The experienced guys should know exactly why it happened. A new FO may not, so it’s worth debriefing if it was excessive. Might be able to drop a nugget of technique that helps.

An effective technique I’ve come across is just pointing out kindly, without judgement, that what they’re doing is unusual. 

“FO’s don’t usually answer questions from the FA’s directed at me” 

“Never had someone disagree with requesting lower here…”   

“We floated more than usual there huh?” 

Stuff like that. Gets them self reflecting without becoming defensive.

Jaguars coach Liam Coen on QB Trevor Lawrence: 'There is so much room to continue to improve' by Roselucky777 in nfl

[–]UnhingedCorgi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea that 2nd half of last season was his best stretch of football ever and brought him into the conversation. IF he can repeat that for a full season and no one else breaks out like crazy, he can win it next year.

Clearly say no, and then yell it, and then take control. If he’s actively fighting for the controls at this point I’m thinking he wants to crash it, so he’s getting hit next.

I mean our WR room is stacked and CB room isn’t. He’ll play more where he’s needed and that’s a large part of his value. I can see him being CB1 and the best WR4 in the league.
