  • TW - talk of sensitive topics, including suicide, abduction. Profanity also may be used.

    Following on from a conversation over dinner at the EHS Congress in Berlin, John joins James to pick up where they left off - how can we take what we've learnt in Risk Management and apply it to running our households? And does it work the other way - can we apply what we learn in parenting to the workplace? How do we prepare our children for becoming adults? This is a cracking conversation absolutely jam packed full of stories! Thank you, John, for joining us on Rebranding Safety. Enjoy......

  • Not to dwell on the past but....... Here's a conversation between James and Elisa Lynch 🍉 about a post that went pretty viral here on LinkedIn back in May. This was recorded on the day (we're on podcast publishing catch up! 😖) and the frustrations are live!

    The post itself was regarding a cut Hi Vis and the responding approach taken by the safety professional on site. In discussing their thoughts on the approach taken, James and Elisa touch on: The condescending, gender and bragging elements, the technical safety element, how might new safety professionals view this? Is LinkedIn the right place to be having these conversations? Is there an alternative? What is the context of the approach and do we consider it enough? Echo chambers and safety culture on site.

    Listener question: "What do we need to do to prevent health and safety being a thankless task?"

    Thanks to Stephen Murray!

  • Join James and Peter where they chat about society and community and its relationship with work and safety. They discuss mental health, sharing mistakes and whether or not we need more 'community' as well as where/how we can find it - if at all......

    The question from one of our amazing listeners this week...

    Q: How can big organisations assist the companies who don't have proper safety management systems, particularly in countries within Africa and Asia?

    Answer includes: Introspection, parameter setting, cohesive vs isolated decision making, think outside safety, and when you hear hooves, think horses not zebras!

  • It's a mixed bag this week...... James and Peter discuss gamification and how in making the communication of safety fun, we can ingrain a stronger message. Also, what does it mean to work and how we can tie this to health and safety initiatives, plus a call to action:

    We're crowdsourcing problems! If you have a specific problem in the world of safety or risk management that you're trying to navigate/'hack' let us know. We can then use these as problem statements in any upcoming 'Hackathons' which is where we will put together an immersive workshop to try to find a solution to this problem. Drop us a line and maybe we can 'hack' your issue, and let us know if you'd be interested in coming along to the next one!

  • We're not necessarily talking about the people, the books, the podcasts etc...... but what examples from real life experiences have we taken and adapted to use in our roles as safety professionals? What have we pulled from our hobbies and past times? Our quirky interests? (holla Pete and his torches!) We big time get into gamification and how we use it to communicate a message, as well as critical thinking and being advocates for just 'trying shit!" Enjoy.....

  • Thank you to Dr. Andrew Sharman, author, Professor of Risk, Resilience and Safety Culture and CEO of RMS Switzerland, who joins us in this special live episode of Rebranding Safety. With James, Andrew talks about the success of the 2024 EHS Congress in Berlin, the new International Institute of Leadership and Safety Culture (IILSC) and the EHS congress coming to London in December 2024. Thanks again Andrew for joining us. Enjoy.....

  • James is joined by the wonderful Juliana Bley, psychologist, founder of SafetyLab and Ted X speaker. They discuss the importance of relationships within learning, and having strategies to apply the content you consume; "having the best technology with no educational plan surrounding it is merely entertainment". Juliana also talks about the Art of Hosting, a global community practising participatory leadership, collaborative practices, dialogue and more. Thank you, Juliana, for joining us on the podcast. Enjoy.....

  • A massive thank you to Jean-Christophe who joins us live from the EHS Congress in Berlin. Jean-Christophe is a distinguished researcher working at the National Institute for the Industrial Environment and Risks. His workshop, "How new is the 'new view' in safety?" blew us away at the Congress and he discusses this here today with James. Enjoy.....

  • We're so excited to publish this conversation between James and Sidney Dekker - professor, author, film maker, founder of the Safety Science Innovation Lab amongst many other accolades, Sidney gives his insights into the gap between 'safety as done' and 'safety as imagined', the 'tribalism' surrounding different safety approaches, and James somehow shoe-horns an conversation about Star Wars in there with no intended end point!

    Thank you to Sidney and to the organisers at the EHS Congress in Berlin for helping us to set up this conversation - definitely a career highlight. Enjoy.....

  • A massive thank you to Phil Clarke, Head of H&S at Care UK, who joins us on the podcast this week. Phil and James discuss fire safety in the care sector and the unique challenges that come with it, incident investigations and the challenges in making changes, the importance of community, building trust in your people, your systems and your buildings, competence vs confidence, and to educate or to train - that is the question! They also dive in to a question put forward by one of our amazing listeners. Enjoy...

  • In this episode, James and Peter reflect on what they've been up to, including The Health and Safety Event and the BFFF Conference, as well as answering a question from one of our listeners. This weeks discussion point from Terry Considine is...
    "I want more accountability and that starts with Occupational Safety and Health professionals, whilst we're in a field of 'come as you wish' so long as you a) Don't give me any bad news, and b) Are cheap as chips. More regulation of H&S advisors but the established institutions don't seem to want to rock the boat".

  • Disclaimer: Profanity used throughout this episode
    Amy is the Founder of The Safe Tribe, a membership community for safety professionals, giving them a safe space to share ideas and gain confidence within the industry. With James, Amy talks about the reputation that the safety profession still has, safety being a scapegoat, the reasons we should focus on core skills, and why she wanted to set up The Safe Tribe, all of this along with discussing her experiences as an employee as well as a consultant. Thank you so much, Amy, for joining us. Enjoy...

  • Disclaimer - Profanity used throughout this video
    The survey results are in...... Thanks to everyone that completed our "Safety Professional - are you ok?" survey. The results were thought provoking, and in light of Blue Monday just passed (15th Jan) we share some of our thoughts here. We discuss the state of mental health surrounding the safety profession, how our sleep is affected, the challenges that exist relative to workload, loneliness and isolation, uncertainty, and prioritising our own ambitions. We give our thought on the notion that "good is expected", as well as the importance and power of networks, communities and peer to peer support, along with challenges between individual occupational groups and industry wide sharing.

    We'd also love you hear your thoughts - do you think it would be valuable to know more about actual issues and events as and when they're happening to trigger discussions on H&S topics, and how the consultant network can come together on this for the greater good of the profession?

  • Thank you to Chris who joins us for a second time on Rebranding Safety. Chris is an award-winning author and co-founder of Clearfield Group, guiding leaders through change and complexity. We catch up on the last 2 years and the landscape of complexity since his book 'Meltdown', co-authored by Andras Tilcsik, was released in 2018. We discuss leadership and 'the power of not knowing', implementing a culture and how it changes over time, being open and real about the levels of engagement and participation you're willing or able to take on, and the power of story telling. Enjoy, my fellow risk nerds..... (as coined by Chris!)

  • Disclaimer - Profanity used throughout this podcast.
    As safety professionals, we find it abhorrent that a person can lose their life at work, but as a society, do we accept that it’s OK for a person to die at work in the name of progress - either economically, socially, technologically? We give our thoughts on this harrowing subject, citing figures from the ILO and HSE reports. We discuss modern slavery, forever chemicals, as well as the issues surrounding SSIP schemes. And, as a profession, who is advocating for us when it comes to the larger, societal safety issues and the significant long term chronic health impacts from things that safety teams/consultants aren't able to look at on a daily basis? What do we want to see from our professional bodies to ensure changes are made to ensure that the economic growth of our countries, and the world, isn't written in blood or the cognitive and behavioural impairment of generations yet to come?

  • Disclaimer - Profanity used throughout this podcast. It's been a mammoth year at Rebranding Safety - here's a little round up. We talk about LinkedIn royalty, Hackathons, not having the time to do new research, and obviously...... the Risk Fluent guidebook "How to Rebrand Safety Part 1". Look out for more great content coming your way in 2024!

  • Absolutely buzzing to introduce our new Senior Partner, Peter, who you'll all know from his quarterly co-host segment last year and his extensive networking in and around safety. James and Peter have know each other for a couple of years now, and in this episode, they discuss everything they're excited about for the future of Risk Fluent. Enjoy...

  • Check out the latest at Rebranding Safety, what's coming up, our new content structure and a massive thank you to all of our viewers and listeners for getting us to where we are now! Enjoy...
