A provocative examination of human performance and safety management, the book delivers a thought-provoking discourse about how we work, and defines a new approach to operational learning.

This is not a book about traditional safety. This is a book about creating real safety in your organization. In order to predict incidents before they happen, an organization should first understand how their processes can result in failure. Instead of managing the outcomes, they must learn to manage and understand the processes used to create them.

Ideal for use in safety, human performance, psychology, cognitive and decision making, systems engineering, and risk assessment areas, this book equips the safety professional with the tools, steps, and models of success needed to create long-term value and change from safety programs.

Failure is inevitable but disastrous consequences are not. Any human effort can fail. In fact, failure is a necessary step toward learning and innovation. Failure is just the occurrence of the unexpected, unintended, or unwanted, and learning and innovation are the constructive responses to these occurrences. However, when we do dangerous work-the kind of work that creates high value for companies, communities, and society-the consequences of failure can be catastrophic. The role of a safety leader is to build the organization's capacity to do dangerous work without unacceptable consequences while also adapting to changing conditions around that work.

This book is for safety leaders. It describes six leadership practices that build safety capacity. Safety capacity is the extent to which organizations can absorb the consequences of failure. Safety capacity not only allows an organization to avoid catastrophe, it enables the organization to learn, innovate, and thrive.
