Re-thinking The Human Factor with Bruce Hallas
The challenge with creating behavioural change is doing it well enough that people actually change their behaviour consistently. And beyond that, it's about ensuring that other people in the organisation can observe this new behaviour around them so that they come to the realise this is simply "the way we do things around here" in other words, the organisational culture. When we set about creating behavioural change, the ultimate objective is for that change to become embedded in the culture, because that's when we start to see the results we're looking for.
Creating Behavioural Change that Becomes Part of CultureIn today's podcast episode this is what we're going to be exploring. Bruce is joined on the podcast by Su Ee Wong. Su Ee’s journey towards becoming a safety and health (S&H) professional is an unusual one. She started off in biomedical science and a serendipitous stint in the HR office of an academic institution sparked an interest in workplace safety and health.
The unique blend of her science background, HR experience, and S&H interest got her a Mid-Career Training Sponsorship where she was given the opportunity to train as an S&H professional in a University. As the core businesses of a University are research and teaching, she is able to apply her knowledge in research to better manage the S&H of staff and students.
Her passion is in creating a safe, healthy and happy environment that the community can thrive in. She strongly believes that the activities we engage in should do no harm to our people or to Mother Earth. [1]
