Mind The Gap: Rethinking Our Approach To Risk Perception, with Carla Crocombe

Mind The Gap: Rethinking Our Approach To Risk Perception, with Carla Crocombe

What if the way you think about risk is all wrong?

In this eye-opening episode of the Safety and Risk Success podcast, Christian Harris is joined by Carla Crocombe, founder of Safety Rocks, to challenge the way we perceive and manage risk. Discover why our instincts often fail us when it comes to safety and learn how rethinking risk perception can help you close the gap between awareness and action. Whether you're a safety professional or just curious about human behaviour, this episode will change the way you look at risk management forever.

Highlights:

  • What is risk perception?: How individuals assess risk daily, often subconsciously.
  • Fast thinking vs. logic: Why quick decisions can lead to misjudging risks.
  • Human nature and risk: How stress, illness, and emotions distort our view of risk.
  • Risk appetite in organisations: Balancing individual perceptions with organisational goals.
  • The impact of complacency: Why repetitive tasks lower risk awareness over time.
  • Social influence on risk: How group dynamics shape safety culture.
  • Educating on biases: Helping people understand cognitive shortcuts and biases.
  • Real-world consequences: The importance of making risk personal to improve engagement.
  • Building safety culture: How trust and tenacity are key to influencing safer behaviours.
