keynote Session 5: Embrace Errors and Don’t Hide Them
People are often ashamed to admit they’ve made a mistake—but human error is unavoidable. The reality of the situation is that simple mistakes can often have serious injury outcomes. Should you focus on helping people prevent making errors in the first place or focus on managing errors with sound systems thinking?
Tim will demonstrate how to do both. See why individual, group, and systems thinking is needed to effectively prevent injuries and continuously learn from every day variances in work to avoid serious consequences.
We will understand human and system factors and the relationship between them for continuous improvement. And to clarify the differences between human error prevention and human error management. And learn why everyone needs to fully understand, communicate, and practice both error prevention and management strategies at work and at home.
