Mastering the Art of Getting Things Done
Getting things done, especially new things, is a challenge. In an environment where what you do is dependent on a range of other stakeholders is a greater challenge. Our workshop helps you to plan your goal, define what benefits you are creating and to identify the challenges blocking you from getting things done.
We help you understand your own personal behaviour profile (DISC) and how to identify the Stakeholders and their behaviour profiles, understand what motivates them, ways to approach, and communicate with them.
You need to attend if you have a specific goal that you would like to achieve and would like to step through a process to work out best actions and give yourself the best chance to succeed.
Core to the program is the leadership shift from directing and telling people and reliance on behavioural traits to understanding work and what is required to facilitate successful work.

Journal Club|Enabling Breakthrough Safety
For the month of December, the Journal Club topic is 'The surprising connection between safety, productivity & engagement.’

Date: Wednesday 7 December 2022
Time: 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm AEDT (Melbourne/Sydney time)
What has trust, cooperation, and productivity got to do with safety in mining and manufacturing?
We will look at these interactions from a systems perspective to see how they are related. Then we will interrogate the current management paradigm that leads to suboptimal outcomes. Finally, we will use the Theory of Constraints to build a base where productivity, trust and cooperation quickly improve. And we will show how this makes the system safer. Although aimed at mining and manufacturing the principles can be applied to most businesses.

Time: 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm AEST (Melbourne/Sydney time)
In the summer and fall of 2009, hundreds of Toyota owners came forward with an alarming allegation: Their cars were suddenly and uncontrollably accelerating. Toyota was forced to recall 10 million vehicles, pay a fine of more than $1 billion, and settle countless lawsuits. The consensus was that there was something badly wrong with the world’s most popular cars. Except that there wasn’t. On December 26, 2012, Toyota announced it would spend more than US$1 billion to settle a class action lawsuit involving unintended acceleration by retrofitting vehicles with safety devices and compensated owners for lost resale value.
“Blame Game” looks under the hood at one of the strangest public hysterias in recent memory. What really happened in all those Camrys and Lexuses? And how did so many drivers come to misunderstand so profoundly what was happening to them behind the wheel? The answer touches on our increasingly fraught relationship with technology and the dishonesty and naiveté of many in the media. This session is a study into the externalities that come into play when a high profile catastrophic event occurs.

Date: Wednesday 6 July 2022
Time: 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm AEST (Melbourne/Sydney time)
This Journal Club will examine the concepts of measurement that dominate the quality, safety, environment landscape, and how a transition to capacity and human performance measures can energise capacity building in an organisation.
