Introduction
Safely directing complex organizations, like Civil Air Patrol, requires an understanding of the program requirements and
a safety mindset that is acquired by prior planning, ORM, and constant situational awareness. This is a key function of the corporate official in the wing. Safety requires vigilance to
ensure the proper education and prevention oversight reaches all of our members in appropriate and relevant
methods. When our organization fails to be compliant, the wing commander is a key individual in supporting
investigations. A wing commander’s responsibility is to ensure subordinate commanders’ recommendations for
remedial training are accomplished.

Foster a willingness to share and learn Safety should be proactive not reactive Should be supported at all levels of leadership and
integrated in all CAP programs Safety should be easy to navigate
If you think it, it can be done.
Remember
