In my time as a Nuclear Operator at the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station, I spent approximately three years as a Supervised Control Panel Operator. This job involved, among other duties, the performance of a large variety of tests on the reactor components and instrumentation. Communication and leadership skills were of paramount importance to the execution of these tests. Each test involved the coordinated activities of up to ten operators, mechanics and control technicians, with the lead role assumed by myself. I had to ensure that each person involved in the test understood their role precisely and was prepared to follow my orders. Some of the more sensitive tests could have had adverse consequences for both reactor systems and for personnel safety, so it was essential that my communication skills and leadership abilities be well developed.
