Star SAFIRE 380-HDc 2018 WINTER ISSUE WINTER 9 Vertical 911.indd 1 1/17/2018 9:52:43 PM Column Focus on Professionalism // Tony Kern Every once in a while, I get an email from a reader that evokes a visceral reaction from me. A few weeks back, this one came through. “Just finished reading Going Pro and although I’m trying hard to be a fully compliant and improving professional, the culture I’m in won’t allow it. Do you have any ideas?” My first thought was to ask this person if he had really finished reading the book, as I address the challenges of operating in a poor culture towards the end — but apparently not in sufficient depth. I suspect there are many who find themselves in a similar situations, trying to do their best in a world that doesn’t appreciate it, or worse, won’t allow it. Culture is one of those soft words people in our industry throw around haphazardly, without a full understanding of its meaning and a lack of respect for its power. It has been described vaguely as “the way things are done around here.” Not good enough by half. Culture is an influential force that often trumps policies, procedures, and the best plans of organizational leaders. It saps the enthusiasm out of those who — like the gentleman who emailed me — try to improve themselves and their organization only to be frustrated by cul- tural norms of sloppiness and noncompliance. Think of your culture as a fast-flowing river that sweeps everything downstream in its pow- erful hydraulics. If it is a positive force, things are easy. If it’s not, positive change is nearly impossible, good employees disengage, and safety margins are eroded. But even the largest rivers are formed by small tributaries. This truth is where individuals who feel like they are Swimming swimming against the current of a poor culture can anchor their efforts. THREE OPTIONS Upstream When we find ourselves in a situation where we feel this way, we need to make a conscious choice of how we are going to respond. There are basically three options. Go along to get along. This is the lazy path of the professional coward. A person who chooses to lower their personal standards to those of others who set lower cultural norms becomes a part of the problem. The danger here is twofold. First, substandard performance is extremely dangerous in first responder world, both to ourselves and those we serve.

This year we have seen growth in CalPilots with the new chapters forming at Reid Hillview Airport (CAAPSO) and Oakdale Municipal Airport. Not sure how to become a CalPilots Chapter? Ask us! We would be glad to help you through the process. This past year has seen some challenges to our airports. We have an ongoing lawsuit in Bermuda Dunes concern- ing airport land use.
