  • Summary

  • This is an introduction to a series of podcasts on a Field Guide to Human and Organisational Factors that introduces, in a practical manner, the key principles and techniques to make our organisations and communities Stronger, Smarter and Safer.

    These insights are from a career of 4 decades spanning the Globe from the Artic Circle to Auastralasia within the Oil and Gas, Petrochemicals, Aviation, Logistics and Maritime Sectors as a Chartered Safety Engineer, Leadership Coach, Business Consultant and Accident Investigation Team Leader.

    Human and Organisational Factors (HOF) are about People who are involved in all aspects of work within our communites. These are all the key elements within workplaces in all Sectors that have an impact on the people who work there and the communites they impact that are fundamental in keeping everyone safe.

    Human and organisational factors affect how effectively and safely people are able to do their jobs.
    When managed well, human and organisational factors set people up for success. When they are poorly managed, or have not been considered, safety, productivity and wellbeing are compromised to the detrimment of everyone.

    Over the next few months we'll introduce the key aspects of this empowering area in an ever changing world to help our communites be more resilent and grow to the wellbeing of all.
