Today I'm joined by previous guest and friend of the podcast Dave Provan . You know, you are pretty amazing. I know this based on one fact alone, and that is that you are listening because you are invested in your own development, your own growth. One of the biggest challenges to improvement that I observe in my work and general conversation with health and safety professionals is seemingly simple - taking action. We know what we might be able to do. We are often motivated. But action doesn't fo...

My guest Carsten Busch is a German born, Dutch raised, Norwegian working and English speaking curiosity - a while ago he released a book called Safety Myth 101 - Musings on Myths, Misunderstandings and More. Now apart from his unashamed use of alliteration, it caught my attention because I had never heard of anything like it before - how many time have we had an interaction with someone in our organisation and thought "you've got it all wrong, that's a myth, it's just not right?"

I find that when things aren't working as well as they could in my life, especially when there is high uncertainty, I can always rely on my core beliefs and values to guide me, which come togeth...
