Another Look At Human Error In the Wake of COVID- 19
This week, Stacey is joined by Dr. Willis Thomas to talk about reducing human error in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Efforts to investigate root causes are
typically incomplete or poorly performed. Most regulatory authorities no longer accept human error as a justifiable cause of errors, making it necessary, now more than ever, to ensure proper systems are in place, employees are thoroughly trained, procedures are being followed and equipment is not deficient in any way to reduce or prevent
human error.
Dr. Thomas has worked for large corporations and academic institutions in the areas of human resources, learning and development, quality assurance, project management, sales and marketing, measurement and evaluation, and
operations. He has been in senior management for life sciences companies for the past 15 years. Dr. Thomas, in his current full-time role, is involved in preventing and reducing human error from an HR perspective. He is also adjunct faculty at the Lake Forest Graduate School of Management, International Institute for Learning and Institute of Validation Technology. Dr. Thomas’ publications have received global recognition from associations such as the Project Management Institute (PMI) where he received the Cleland Award for “The Basics of Project Evaluation and Lessons
Learned.” This book was an 8-year effort that enhanced the framework for the evaluation of projects using the PMBOK® Guide. He has been a featured speaker on an international basis and has received the Apex Publication Excellence Award
for implementing useful tools for project management, evaluation and training, and has been a member of the speaking faculty for IVT since 2005 and responsible for US Human Resources for PQE Group, Inc. In addition, he holds the certified performance technologist certification (CPT) from ispi.org.
