Hey Safety, What’s Your Worldview?

December 12, 2024 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

Whenever Safety presents so called ‘ideas’, ‘slogans’, ‘models’ or ‘thought bubbles’ from so called ‘thought leaders’, make sure you seek out the hidden worldview. No text, model or discourse is neutral or objective. It comes from a worldview, a way of seeing the world. A worldview is also known … [Read more...] about Hey Safety, What’s Your Worldview?

A Change of Heart and Worldview

February 25, 2024 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

The connection between the Heart, Gut and Brain is astounding, which is why in SPoR, we make the concept of One Brain Three Minds (1B3M) (https://safetyrisk.net/gab-and-robone-brain-three-minds/) foundational to understanding decision making. The research on humans as enactive embodied persons is … [Read more...] about A Change of Heart and Worldview

Stepping Outside Your Worldview, Take a Risk

February 22, 2024 by Dr Rob Long 4 Comments

I discovered recently that there is a Hindu Temple (Mandir) 10 minutes from my place. It was constructed in 1995 and I must have driven past it many times but it’s not something for which I was aware. It’s funny like that, the moment we buy a certain car we suddenly can see all the cars like ours on … [Read more...] about Stepping Outside Your Worldview, Take a Risk

Zero as a Worldview

August 12, 2023 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

If one observes over time the introduction of zero into Safety and its evolution, one sees the strangest developments (https://www.humandymensions.com/product/zero-the-great-safety-delusion/ ). The use of zero as a language, semiotic, icon, ideology and discourse changes everything. When Zero … [Read more...] about Zero as a Worldview

Can There Be Other Valid Worldviews Than Safety? This is the challenge worldviews is the challenge of the unknown unknowns. How can I know another worldview, when all I know is my own?

Evaluating Value by the Value of What You Don’t Know

May 15, 2023 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

You can’t know what you don’t know and so you can only evaluate a value by what you do know, by your worldview/paradigm. However, regardless of that worldview, there are other worldviews that are just as valid. All worldviews compete just as all values compete, for power, within a culture. Unless … [Read more...] about Evaluating Value by the Value of What You Don’t Know

The Safety Worldview and the Worldview of Safety, Testing Due Diligence

August 13, 2022 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

Following the World Congress on Safety and Health I begin to wonder just how more absurd the safety industry can become. It is clear from the Congress that safety is now the filter through which one views life rather than, life being the filter through which one views safety. When one gets such a … [Read more...] about The Safety Worldview and the Worldview of Safety, Testing Due Diligence
