| Popis | Individual actors, groups, and organizations may be caught by surprise either if something entirely new or if something familiar is happening in an unexpected or in an untimely manner, requiring immediate action. Such occurs in innovative contexts, in crisis situations, or even when working on routine tasks as our introductory case of the Austrian UN peacekeepers demonstrates. Despite a considerable amount of research on the management of such situations, there is surprising little knowledge on antecedents of the ability to cope with the unexpected, neither on the individual, nor on the group level. In this paper, we explore the impact of training for coping with both types of these surprises. More specifically, we focus on extensive training of rules and behavioural patterns, labelled as “drill”. |
