Modern operations demand warfighters who can make sound decisions under pressure, uncertainty, and real threat, often without guidance, permission or complete information. This panel explores how defence training is evolving to build cognitive resilience, judgement and autonomy, not just technical skill. are moving beyond skills-based training to develop cognitive resilience, judgement, and autonomy. Drawing on real world examples and operational experience, panellists will discuss how decision-making is trained under stress, how trust and autonomy are built, and how personnel are prepared to adapt when plans fail. The session will examine what it truly means to train the human to decide in contested, high-risk environments.
