Hogwash.
If you can't spin the tenets of CRM into something useful outside of aviation then you aren't trying very hard.
This is akin to saying that the infantry(person) in the military doesn't bring any transferrable skills to the civilian world; yet *most* employers recognize that associated skills with the military are in fact highly desired. Though aviation might not be as well known, that is YOUR job when writing/polishing your resume to highlights and translate those skills into skills your targeted employer desires.
