    Ep. 124 Is safety a key value driver for business?

    In this episode, we dig into conflicting research, question the role of data, and offer practical insights on transforming safety from a compliance burden to a strategic asset. Instead of a research paper, we look into an upcoming Sept/Oct 2024 Harvard Business Review Workplace Health and Safety Magazine Article called "Safety Should Be a Performance Driver - It’s more than just a compliance issue” by Vikas Mittal, Alessandro Piazza, and Sonam Singh.

    Ep. 118 How should we account for technological accidents?

    Have you ever considered who shoulders the blame when technology fails us catastrophically? Today’s paper by Dr. Katherine Elizabeth Kenny, “Blaming Deadmen: Causes, Culprits, and Chaos in Accounting for Technological Accidents” examines the complex web of causes behind technological accidents. We examine the chilling case of the Waterfall rail tragedy, unraveling the layers of human judgment, mechanical failure, and the systemic implications that ripple through our safety practices. Kenny's insights offer a transformative lens on how we perceive and address the chaos of disasters, challenging us to rethink the assumptions that underpin our search for answers.
