E-OSC and the Culture of Excellence

Expanded Operational Stress Control (E-OSC) is an important part of the Navy’s Culture of Excellence. Every great culture benefits from people working together to accomplish significant goals, and also to look after each other along the way. E-OSC is a peer-to-peer program which is built from evidence-based practices to build and sustain toughness and resilience.
 
The E-OSC Team leader works within the Command Resilience Team to identify factors that affect crew resilience. They have been trained in tools which will help them to enhance those factors which support resilience and to mitigate those factors which reduce resilience.  
 
There truly is strength in numbers, and when people work together to partner in building resilience, it will improve everyone’s ability to persevere, adapt, and grow through the challenges they face.

Resilience:

The ability to persevere, adapt, and grow through adversity.

Vision:
A Navy team well versed in recognizing, addressing and navigating stress in order to mitigate undesired outcomes and grow in the face of challenges.
 
Mission:
To build Navy resilience through toughness, trust, and connectedness while educating on stress management to maintain mission and personnel readiness.
 
Objectives:
1. To build resilience, self-care, and buddy care techniques.
2. To identify and manage stress in order to support positive reactions and mitigate negative reactions

3. To connect sailors in ways that support growth.
