TapRooT® Changing the Way the World Solves Problems

Certified TapRooT® Instructor . . . have you been wanting to become one at your company so you can teach TapRooT® to your employees . . . there are a lot more things to consider than just checking off the steps to becoming one and we’ll tell you about that in this week’s TapRooT® TV. Things to consider are things like will your instructor be able to teach at least once a month? It takes regular practice to be an effective instructor. We have learned it takes a year of consistent teaching to encounter most of the types of questions an instructor will receive in training. How experienced are they at doing TapRooT® investigations? Experience can bring a great perspective to the course they teach, especially when attendees start asking questions about applying TapRooT® in real-life scenarios. Are they instructor material? Just because someone has a lot of experience with investigations doesn’t necessarily mean they will make a great instructor. Links mentioned in the video: https://store.taproot.com/5-Day

Welcome to this edition of TapRooT® TV about stopping human error?
 

In this edition we discuss book 10 in the TapRooT® Book Series: Stopping Human Error.

This book, and the course based on the book, is a great place to learn about the human factors research that has been applied in the field to improve human reliability. 

Managers often think that if people would just try harder, concentrate, think before they act, and be more careful, then accidents wouldn’t happen. If you think that’s the answer – give it a try! Trying harder isn’t a bad idea but it’s not a sustainable strategy to improve human performance.

What can you do? Try the proven human performance best practices in this book. They are based on human factors research and have been proven in the field.

You might ask, “Can I stop all human errors?” The answer is no. But you can stop important errors, make other errors less likely and easy to catch and add defense in depth to stop major accidents.

Finally, at the end of this book, you will have the knowledge you need to develop a custom program to improve human performance at your facility and stop many important human errors. What can this save your company? Billions. It can prevent fatalities, stop quality issues, improve equipment reliability, and reduce the chance of regulatory fines. That means this book is well worth your time to read.
