Practical HRO: Optimizing Risk Management using High Reliability Organizing

Business


In its most basic form Risk Management recognizes one basic truth… mistakes happen. In response to this, organizations should prepare two complimentary collections of actions  (1) – establish methods to anticipate risks to prevent them and (2) – when prevention fails, establish methods to contain the results. In addition to preventing mistakes and then limiting the impact, these two collections of actions form a feedback loop that improves the risk management outcomes over time.This episode explores the Anticipation Habits. In the "HRO In The News" section we look at HRO and the Veterans Hospital Administration. The closing section investigates the implementation of a Just Culture over the typical culture of blame.
