About
Hi, I'm Tracy, the CEO of Organisational Genetics.

I know all about toxic workplaces and how they damage workforces.

As an HR expert of more than 25 Years, I've experienced bullying first-hand as Director of Human Resources at a world-famous NHS Hospital Trust.

As a whistleblower determined to highlight a damaging culture of enforced silence, I was threatened, persecuted, and eventually driven out of my job. And it didn’t stop there.

But what I learnt from these horrendous experiences and my subsequent campaign for justice was that I was not prepared to turn away. I was determined to fight for the truth – for justice – and to help others in similar situations.

More importantly, I wanted to prevent them from happening again. As a result, I have created systems to make raising concerns easier and that can also support the work of independent, external bodies.

My work helps organisations create a more open reporting culture, prevents individuals from being victimised or suffering retribution and ensures that a talented, committed workforce is retained.

My team and I help companies and organisations: 

✅ Manage risk

✅ Reduce harm

✅ Promote respect through hi-tech live intelligence 

To promote a healthier and more productive working life.

Connect with me and find out more, I am honoured to help.

Dan Kaszeta is a specialist in defence against chemical, biological, and radiological weapons and warfare. Although he has lived in London since 2008, the first part of his career was in the United States. He earned a BA in Political Science and Russian language from Texas Christian University. After graduation, he was commissioned as an officer in the US Army in the small but highly skilled Chemical Corps. Dan was honour graduate of his lengthy training course at US Army Chemical School. After only brief active service, he was reassigned to the Army Reserve and spent over a decade in reserve and National Guard assignments while pursuing a civilian career.
He subsequently moved to Washington DC and was awarded an MA in International Affairs from George Washington University. The Tokyo Sarin attacks in 1995, combined with scarce chemical weapons expertise, meant that in early 1996 he took up the post of Disaster Preparedness Advisor at the White House Military Office, where he had responsibility for chemical and biological preparedness and training for the office of the President. After the 9/11 attacks and the anthrax terrorism, the responses to which he was heavily involved in, Dan transferred to the US Secret Service, where he joined the team protecting the President and the White House complex from chemical and biological threats.
In 2008, Dan relocated to London. From 2008 to 2011 he worked for Smiths Detection, managing their chemical warfare detection business in Central and Eastern Europe. Since 2011, he has been an independent security consultant and author.
He is the author of numerous articles and his recent publications include: ‘CBRN and Hazmat Incidents at Major Public Events: Planning and Response’ (Wiley, 1st ed 2012 2nd ed 2022), ‘Toxic: A History of Nerve Agents’ (Hurst, 2020) and ‘Forest Brotherhood: Baltic Resistance against the Nazis and Soviets’ (Hurst, 2023). Mr. Kaszeta has been selected as a Writer-in-Residence at Gladstone’s Library for 2024.
