TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Cockpit design and cross-cultural issues underlying failures in crew resource management JO - Aviation, space, and environmental medicine A1 - Harris, Deneen A1 - Li, Wen-Chin SP - 537 EP - 538 VL - 79 IS - 5 N2 - High power-distance has been implicated in many aircraft accidents involving Southeast Asian carriers where crew resource management (CRM) has been identified as a root cause. However, this commentary argues that the design of modern flight decks and their standard operating procedures have an inherent Western (low power-distance) bias within them which exacerbates these CRM issues.
