  See the value of diversity and boost your career with a balanced approach to your professional capability. One of the greatest challenges I face in my mission to help people like you grow and drastically improve health and safety is to bring our message to people who aren’t seeking it out, but who would benefit greatly from growing themselves.  You might know someone like that - do them a favour and tell them about Safety on Tap, and what you get out of it.  But Don't tell them not just to take your word for it, check out this recent review on iTunes: HSE Improver says 5 starts Virtual Mentor! "The Safety on Tap podcast has been a revelation for me during my long commute. It is akin to a probing mentor, generating thought as it dissects across disciplines, with health and wellbeing at its core. Some of the episodes such as the recent cast on bullying have opened up my mind, and the technique that Andrew uses to flip threat discussions into opportunities has already reaped rewards in my own continuing professional development. I would like to say a big thanks to Andrew and enjoy hearing more of your great work. " If you appreciate what we're creating here at Safety on Tap, you can also spread the word by submitting a review on iTunes or Stitcher - I am always humbled and appreciative of the feedback I get. Today's guest is Kelly Lovely, an accomplished health and safety professional, mentor and coach through Bookenz Leadership, not to mention a director on the Board of the Safety Institute of Australia.  Here we go:   I mentioned the Implicit Association Test which would provide your unconscious bias, you really need to take at least one of these tests: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/australia/takeatest.html Kelly was also kind enough to create an e-book just for you, which describes the bookenz game in more detail.  You can access that here: [thrive_leads id='1516'] And speaking of improving yourself, I wanted to let you know that our friends at Art of Work have released new dates for their Master Classes across Australia, the UK and New Zealand. If you haven't heard of them, Art of Work is the company to go to if you're looking for practical support in implementing safety differently principles within your organisation. If you visit their website at artofwork.solutions, you'll see a range of Master Classes that will help you to shift the conversation away from controls and constraints and towards a more proactive and appreciative approach.

I'm pretty excited at the moment.  I'm happy to announce that the newest member of our family has arrived, his name is Jude Thomas, and despite the fact that he has shown his stubbornness in both labour and afterwards, my wife and I, and his 5 siblings, are glad to have him in our lives. I'm also excited about another new beginning, something of a birth I suppose as well.  Safety on Tap Connected, the worlds first growth accelerator designed for health and safety professionals, launched on the 29th of May 2017.  I can't tell you how pumped I am to have our founding member group starting to accelerate their growth. I've had plenty of enquiries about membership after the deadline though, since we were only open for one week.  As our founders group settles down into the rhythm of ongoing growth and development through our coaching, community, content and contemplation, we may open up again for more new members in the future.  So if you think Safety on Tap Connected is right to help you grow, you need to be on the waiting list at safetyontap.com, and I'll let you know when we open the doors again. If you aren't sure what this is all about still, I have something else for you.  Since we are doing something quite different from conventional professional development, it's understandable that you might not be sure what you are actually going to get.  One of the more common bits of feedback I got was about coaching - so many health and safety people haven't had much if any exposure to what coaching is, which arguably is the best value part of the membership.  So if you are in the not sure camp, I have something special for you.  So you can get totally informed, I'll let you have a sneak peek at our member onboarding videos, which explains everything in detail.  If you want to check those out, send me an email andrew@safetyontap.com My guest today is Luke Anear, founder of Safety Culture, the creators of the iAuditor app, the most used audit and inspection app in the world.  Luke has a great product and leads one of the fastest growing tech companies in Australia to make his mission happen - to improve health and safety by helping frontline workers.  He has some great insights about user-centred design, staying true to your mission, and what the future looks like to him.  Here's Luke:     I mentioned a few links I'd share from that discussion with Luke: Health Monitor by Atlassian (for tracking all sorts of projects and team work) Spotlight Incident Reporting and Investigation app (for iOS) User Experience Design Cheat Sheet the Safety Culture way [activecampaign form=5]
