stop investigating, start learning master class - UK & EUROPE EDITION
with Safety Differently® Expert, Sidney Dekker.
Most companies struggle to learn meaningful lessons from their incident investigations, often ending up with recommendations for additional rules or reminders to follow the rules already in place.
Research shows that it’s not so strange to get a low return from investigations: the exact circumstances of the incident will probably never repeat themselves; the investigation only focuses on the unique instance where things went wrong, not why they normally go well; and incidents and subsequent investigations tend to trigger various psychological and organizational defense mechanisms that can hamper honesty and reflection.
In this master class, Sidney and Kelvin will help you start making the shift from investigating to learning.
what will you learn in this master class:
Become familiar with the research on ‘root’ cause, counterfactual reasoning, judgemental labels for ‘human error,’ hindsight and outcome bias, linear thinking and other problems with traditional approaches to investigating.
Shift from hunting deviations to understanding performance
Start to distinguish between investigations and learning teams.
Learn about the process of setting up a learning team, and identifying potential areas for improvement, and see examples of their implementation in various industries.
Begin to appreciate how much more your organisation can learn from the things that go well.

Sidney has lived and worked in seven countries across four continents and won worldwide acclaim for his groundbreaking work in human factors and safety. He coined the term 'Safety Differently' in 2012, which has since turned into a global movement for change.
