Punk Rock Safety

Ep. 7: Diane Saw the Sex Pistols and You Didn't (With Diane Chadwick-Jones)

Episode Summary

There's no better title than to make sure we've got Diane's name in it. Why? If you have to ask, go find out, then listen to the episode. There's a punk band called FEAR. Diane hasn't seen them. Anyway, fear of something different is sort of the topic for this episode. We're posting a little early because the CHOL conference is happening this week, and we'll be live there, too. Back to the important stuff: DCJ is kind of a big deal. Even bigger than Ron, and that's saying something. Diane shames us all by starting out with stories of going to Sex Pistol shows and pogo-ing until she could barely walk. Fucking legend. Anyway, we talk about why safety professionals—and organizations, too—are afraid to try new things in safety. There's a lot that goes into it, and the consensus is that it's not about dumb people. Why can't we move beyond so many ideas we know aren't working the way we hoped? So, how do we get past that fear and anxiety? Well, that's what podcasts are for, dude. Hit play and figure it out.
