3 Words that Kill an Investigation
"They should have..."Three little words that appear in countless incident investigations. But what if they're stopping us from understanding what really happened?In Episode 5 of Leading Safely: Off the Shelf, Georgina Poole explores Sidney Dekker's ideas about counterfactual thinking from The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error'.We'll challenge why focusing on what people should have done can distract us from understanding why their actions made sense at the time.Expect a little humour, uncomfortable questions and practical insights that might change how you approach your next investigation.Because knowing what someone should have done isn't the same as understanding why they didn't.

All the Evidence. Still the Wrong Story?
You've collected the evidence. Reviewed the records. Interviewed everyone involved. Built your timeline.So you've got the full story... right?Well, not necessarily!In Episode 4 of Leading Safely: Off the Shelf, Georgina Poole explores Sidney Dekker's ideas about evidence, context and understanding from The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error'.We'll challenge why having more information doesn't always mean having a better understanding, how investigators can unintentionally construct a story that makes perfect sense in hindsight, and why seeing an event through the eyes of those involved can change everything.Expect some uncomfortable questions, practical examples and a fresh perspective on what it really means to investigate.Because having all the pieces of the puzzle doesn't necessarily mean you've put them together the right way.

How did they NOT see that coming?
Ever looked back at an incident and thought, "Surely they should have known better?"Well, what if the problem isn't what they failed to see, but what we can see now?In Episode 3 of Leading Safely: Off the Shelf, Georgina Poole explores Sidney Dekker's ideas about hindsight bias and micro-matching from The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error'.We'll challenge why mistakes seem so obvious after the event, how investigators can unknowingly judge people using information they never had, and why finding a gap between a procedure and someone's actions doesn't necessarily explain anything.Expect a little humour, some uncomfortable questions and a fresh perspective on how we investigate when things go wrong.Because it's easy to say, "They should have seen it coming" when you already know how the story ends.

Human Error? Plot Twist… That's Where the Story Starts!
What if human error isn't the cause of an accident, but the very thing we need to explain?In Episode 2 of Leading Safely: Off the Shelf, Georgina Poole dives into Sidney Dekker's New View of Human Error, challenging the traditional approach of finding someone to blame when things go wrong.We'll explore why people's decisions make sense to them at the time, how the conditions of work shape their actions, and why better questions lead to better investigations.Expect fresh perspectives, real-world examples and a few challenges to conventional safety thinking.Because human error shouldn't end the conversation. It's where the real story begins!

One Bad Apple? Maybe Check the Orchard!
When something goes wrong, why are we so quick to blame the person involved?In the very first episode of Leading Safely: Off the Shelf, Georgina Poole unpacks Sidney Dekker's Bad Apple Theory from The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error'.We're challenging the idea that accidents happen because of careless people and exploring why the real story is often much more interesting.Expect a little humour, some uncomfortable questions and practical insights you can take straight back to work.Because sometimes the problem isn't the apple. It's the orchard.

Blame still does NOT fix anything!
In this short but sharp episode I speak to some recent research being quoted online which apparently proves that "blame does fix something". I also speak to the notion of 'holding someone accountable' and the foundations of Sidney Dekker's iconic book - The Field Guide to Understanding Human Error.
