Society at large tends to misunderstand what safety is all about.
It is not just the absence of harm. When nothing bad happens over a
period of time, how do you know you are safe? In reality, safety is
what you and your people do moment by moment, day by day to protect
assets from harm and to control the hazards inherent in your
operations. This is the purpose of risk-based thinking, the key
element of the six building blocks of Human and Organizational
Performance (H&OP). Generally, H&OP provides a risk-based
approach to managing human performance in operations. But,
specifically, risk-based thinking enables foresight and
flexibility-even when surprised-to do what is necessary to protect
assets from harm but also achieve mission success despite ongoing
stresses or shocks to the operation. Although you cannot prepare
for every adverse scenario, you can be ready for almost anything.
When risk-based thinking is integrated into the DNA of an
organization's way of doing business, people will be ready for most
unexpected situations. Eventually, safety becomes a core value, not
a priority to be negotiated with others depending on circumstances.
This book provides a coherent perspective on what executives and
line managers within operational environments need to focus on to
efficiently and effectively control, learn, and adapt.
