We should never again put it in on the shoulders of bereaved families to fight for truth and justice - we need to change the blame culture in the NHS for a positive learning culture in which there is openness not obfuscation following a tragedy

If your incident writeup lists “human error” as a cause, it’s a sign that you don’t really understand how the incident happened. Instead, you stopped asking questions too soon.
If your system depends on humans never making errors, you have a systems problem.

You don't need a formal title or rank to be a leader. Show up every day with a positive attitude. Work hard and be kind.

What is your praise to reprimand ratio (PRR)? Research with teenage students discovered that a high PRR led to "greater academic engagement and report card grades, particularly for students who at baseline were more disruptive." @angeladuckw

Dismissing ideas that you dislike isn't critical thinking. It's confirmation bias.

In our @ergonomics1957 state-of-science article on human error we propose the following recommendations to shift the focus from an individual, mechanistic, blame-worthy ‘human error’ approach towards a sociotechnical systems thinking approach #error #systemsthinking #safety

Psychological safety is so important for all staff to flourish! If we don't feel safe we are not in our learning zone so growth and change won't happen.

Couldn't have said it better! TY @BreneBrown “If we want people to fully show up – so that we can innovate, solve problems, and serve people – we have to be vigilant about creating a culture in which people feel safe, seen, heard, and respected.” yiba.co.za/workers-say-their…

Effectively nurturing a #culture of speaking up still isn’t easy—in fact, it can be even harder as teams work remotely—and it is therefore more important than ever. hubs.ly/H0qCcLW0 by @khalilsmith_

My latest sketchnote is a depiction of @AmyCEdmondson spectrum of reasons for #failure And just as there is a spectrum of reasons for failure so should there be a spectrum of responses to that failure #Management

Sometimes positive coaching and leading is just about being present. We don’t always need to give advice or to promise that things will be okay. We just need to be there, show that we care, and help them understand what they were experiencing. @eranmagen
