Perth Workshops
Due Diligence 22-23 July and Risk Amplification 25 26 July
It’s not often that Dr Long gets to Perth to present public workshops. In this case the first workshop is the very popular Due Diligence Workshop conducted with Greg Smith. Those coming to the workshop will receive a complementary copy of Greg’s latest book Papersafe (https://www.bookdepository.com/Paper-Safe-Gregory-W-Smith/9780987630001) and a complementary copy of Risky Conversations.
The second workshop is the Risk Amplification Workshop. Based on the academic work of Pidgeon, Kasperson and Slovic (https://www.bookdepository.com/Social-Amplification-Risk-Nick-Pidgeon/9780521520447?ref=grid-view&qid=1558996910823&sr=1-1) this workshops looks at what amplifies and attenuates risk in the workplace. The workshop unpacks the SARF model (https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-Social-Amplification-of-Risk-Framework-SARF-Reproduced-from-Mills-2011-p-25_fig7_321854002) and helps participants understand why people so often misjudge risk in assessments.

Keith, There is an intensive workshop in August in Canberra with 4 modules on offer in a two week period because of international people who want to attend. The Social Amplification of Risk module is a part of those studies: https://spor.com.au/home/two-week-intensive-4-modules-august-2019/
At this stage we have people attending from Sweden, Austria, South Africa and Canada for the 2 weeks, as well as some aussies.
