Sam, The HOP Nerd, continues his action oriented "What Now?" mini-series!

Today he works through Blame Fixes Nothing... What Now?

It's our go-to reaction when things go wrong, but Blame Fixes Nothing. In the second episode of the "What Now?" action-focused mini-series, Sam, The HOP Nerd, dives deep into why our instinct to blame is so destructive to learning and improvement.

Learn how blame reduces true accountability and get the practical "What Now?" actions to escape the blame trap:

  • Asking "What Failed?" relentlessly before "Who Failed?".
  • Separating learning reviews from disciplinary processes.
  • Moving disciplinary action from the first step to the last step..
  • Adopting fair ways to respond to error, mistake, and well intended violations.
  • Focusing communication on condition and system fixes, not finger-pointing.
  • How leaders can model a learning-focused approach.

Join Sam for practical strategies (and likely some pointed commentary on blame culture absurdity) to build a workplace where learning thrives and accountability means fixing problems, not finding fault.
