Bridging an identified gap between research and practice in the
domain of risk and organizational learning with respect to
human/organizational factors and organizational behaviour, this
book highlights the common and recurring threads in contributory
factors to accident causation. Based on an extensive research
project, it investigates how shipping companies as organizations
learn from, filter and give credence/acceptability to differing
risk perceptions and how this influences the work culture with
special regard to group/team dynamics and individual motivation.
The work is presented in the context of the literature regarding
conceptual links between risk and the theoretical and operational
themes of organizational learning, and in light of interviewees'
comments. The themes include processes and structures of knowledge
acquisition, information interpretation and distribution,
organizational memory and change/adaptation and also levels of
learning. The book concludes by discussing some practical
implications of the research carried out in various maritime
contexts and gives recommendations for the industry and other
stakeholders.
