Having fun Turbo? Without wanting to answer for Bugspeed but I'll have a go.

I think he's implying that a CRMI doesn't hold a superior position, they approach the subject matter as an equal within the group. The idea being to pull peoples disparate experiences, and prior knowledge into coherent strategies that make them safer in the cockpit.

An element of teaching will be needed? There has to be a lesson plan of some sort, to set the stage, to remind people of the rationale behind the item being discussed. Once the parameters are set then the group can be set free to roam within it and discover for themselves.

Remember that CRM subject matter has been designed around mistakes that have been made before, sometimes repeatedly. We're flawed. Rather like an alcoholic having to admit that he's such before he can get better, as professional aircrew we know that errors are inevitable and we should be open to any method that helps to avoid, trap and mitigate those errors.

Does that help?
