It’s such a breath of fresh air to spin all things safety from the historical approach to this new age approach. It boils down to something so simple that it’s scary. The truth. If company’s want to know the truth, the absolute truth, and nothing but the truth … scaaarrryyy!!! To face something scary, you have to be brave. Appreciate the work you’re putting into this mindset.
Outstanding! Insightful, challenging, and entertaining. This is my favorite podcast and look forward to each release.
I just finished the hour long patient safety episode and it was the right message at the right time. I have learned a ton from Todd and his guest, but this one was above average.
