Not Just Another Damn Safety Podcast

Steve Scott

Let's talk some HOP! Human and Organizational Performance, or HOP, is about safety, and much more. I was introduced to HOP after spending almost 20 years in operations with Alcoa, and quickly realized that, in addition to its impact on safety, it is also just a good overall business improvement enabler. If you want to learn more about HOP as an enabler to both better safety performance and overall business performance, then I think there's something here for you.
