If you've ever seen me talking about tacit knowledge, or extracting tacit mental models, or the acceleration of expertise, you'd know that I'm mostly digging up findings from a subfield of psych called Naturalistic Decision Making.
Well, boy do I have an event for you.
Conversation
Tomorrow, the NDM Association is holding an open house, where you'll get a high-level overview of the entire field.
It's 10am - 2pm Eastern, virtual, and completely free to attend!

The keynote speaker is Gary Klein, who created the pre-mortem method, and (more importantly to me, heh) came up with the recognition-primed decision making model, which explains how expert intuition really works.

I'll be giving a 10 minute talk about what learning NDM has done for me (and hopefully I'll leave enough breadcrumbs for those curious enough to dig into the literature for themselves can follow).
But there are a few other talks that I'm looking forward to.

For instance, I'm incredibly curious about Julie Gore's talk on Knowledge Transfer.
And I'm keen to hear about ShadowBox's approach to decision skills.
(Rob Hutton's work on CTA and 's work on accelerated expertise I'm more familiar with).

A large chunk of NDM work is "here's some mental model of expertise we've extracted from domain experts, look at this cool thing they can do!"
So I'm rather curious about Mosier's talk on Aerospace Teams.
Replying to
Another chunk of NDM work are training systems or software systems designed as the result of some expertise extraction.
I have only the fuzziest ideas of what these talks are going to be about, but I'm *very* interested in Cindy Dominguez's talk on Autonomous Flight.

Anyway, if you'd like a broad look into NDM research, which broadly covers:
- Expert intuition
- Intuitive decision making
- Accelerating expertise
- Extracted models of expertise
Sign up here. I promise we won't bore you to death. 😁
