# Event Details - **Event Name**: Collaborative Mindfulness — Teaming for high reliability and performance - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 17 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 am – Fri, 18 Sep, 2026 at 01:00 pm (-05:00) - **Event Description**: Strengthen team cohesion and performance in high risk systems.About this EventTwo-day workshop | 8:00 AM - 1:00 PM each dayTaskThe question of teams — and not leadership — is the hard problem of the psychosocial sciences. This observation is readily inferable from the team cohesion and performance (TCP) studies tasked by NASA to support astronaut selection for long distance space expeditions (LDSEs), including to Mars. LDSEs are high risk systems. They are organizations distinguished by their unforgiving parameters and where the "first error could be the last trial."ResponseEvery organization is a system and every system is an information processing system. Collaborative Mindfulness (CM) is a TCP model for high risk systems and organizations generally. It extends upon the high reliability organization (HRO) cognitive architecture, was designed in response to NASA LDSE team requirements, and is applicable across operations and enterprises. Cybernetic, phenomenological, and social-psychological perspectives are employed to optimize interpretability, applicability, and relevance. Concrete operational and management effects are targeted and projected. The model is amplified by the author’s prior experience as a CIA Operations Officer and his current work coaching US Military and Special Forces in the team, leadership, communicative, and high reliability processes requisite to successful intelligence and psychological operations during war.Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)Improved:Understanding of teamsTeam cohesion and performanceMentorship, leadership, and opennessOrganizational fitness, responsiveness, and adaptabilityOrganizational reliability, interoperability, and performanceDialogue, discourse, and heedfulnessConscientiousness, sense of mission, and meaningfulness in workMethodBest teaching practices are employed.
