Dive into Episode #139 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest John Dony, the Co-Founder and CEO of the What Works Institute.

The What Works Institute is a think tank focused on research and solutions on environmental, health, and safety (EHS). It aims to provide practical, participatory models and tools to address critical and emerging issues in EHS. Its approach includes research, experiential learning communities, and modernized metrics to help organizations achieve and sustain excellence.

One of John’s goals as the leader of the institutes is to provide safety and health-related data, research, and information to the safety profession and beyond much quicker than traditional approaches. The focus on “What Works” is intended to introduce a solution-based approach to everything the Institute does. Before WWI, John served in a senior leadership role at the National Safety Council for nearly two decades.
