Book Sources of Behavioral Variance in Process Safety

Download or read book Sources of Behavioral Variance in Process Safety written by Timothy D. Ludwig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-18 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Process safety management seeks to establish a multi-level system to assess, document, maintain, and inspect equipment and work practices integral in controlling highly toxic and/or reactive materials. In a highly engineered environment, any variance can set off a chain of events that increases the probability of a process safety incident as violent as an explosion. Human behavior is often the biggest source of this variance, but it can also be the biggest asset for process safety management. Process industries are looking to understand sources of behavioral variance and build better processes based on sound behavioral science. Because of this clear link between behavior and process safety performance, the behavior science community has been challenged to research the behavioral root causes leading to variation that threaten process safety; create and evaluate behavioral interventions to mitigate this variation; and identify the system factors that would influence the behaviors necessary to promote process safety. This book seeks to translate behavior analysis into practical systems that can help reduce human suffering from catastrophic process safety events. All of the chapters in this book were originally published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management.

Book Fundamentals of Lawyer Leadership

Download or read book Fundamentals of Lawyer Leadership written by Leah W. Teague and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buy a new version of this textbook and receive access to the Connected eBook on Casebook Connect, including lifetime access to the online ebook with highlight, annotation, and search capabilities. Access also includes an outline tool and other helpful resources. Connected eBooks provide what you need most to be successful in your law school classes. In Fundamentals of Lawyer Leadership: A Skills Guide to Professional Identity Formation, we explore the aspects of leadership and professional identity formation that take root and begin to grow while students are in law school and throughout their lifelong journey as practicing attorneys and professionals. We like to describe professional identity and its formation as the process of becoming a complete lawyer; however, honing the skill sets of a complete lawyer takes time and study. Just as developing legal skills is a life-long endeavor, growing as a leader is a process that evolves over a lifetime. To become whole, healthy, skilled professionals, it is imperative that lawyers engage in a process of lifelong learning. That journey begins in law school, where professors help guide students not only in the formation of their professional identities, but also to develop as effective, thoughtful leaders. This process is vital, not merely as an ABA requirement, but to ensure the future of the profession. For students to develop as both professionals and leaders requires a personal, practical, and reflective approach to the issues. This ownership of continuous professional growth toward excellence, grounded in a service-oriented approach is a cornerstone of preparedness for leadership, and therefore, development as a lawyer. This textbook begins with professional identity formation and foundational leadership and what each means. In Part II, Leadership of Self: Growing into Leadership, the leadership journey requires looking inward to examine who you are, what type of lawyer you want to be, and how you will lead. In Part III, Leadership with Others: Effective Group Dynamics, the book covers topics such as building and nurturing relationships, developing emotional and cultural intelligence, becoming a valuable member of teams, civility, civil discourse, and creating inclusive environments. Finally, in Part IV, Leadership within Community: Service and Impact, the book examines the role of the lawyer in society, including crisis management, how to be prepared for moments of opportunity, and how you can use your skills to have influence and impact others. Contributing your energy to worthy causes about which you are passionate will bring purpose and satisfaction to your life. The authors are available to advise any law school faculty who plan to teach a leadership course and would be happy to discuss the lessons they’ve learned in teaching leadership. Their contact information will be provided upon request. Highlights of Second Edition: Incorporates more clearly the ABA’s requirements for professional identity formation (PIF) Discusses the intersection of that concept with leadership Provides a practical skills approach to becoming a professional Includes an overview of lawyers’ professional identity and formation as a first step to influence and impact through leadership Adds material on new topics, including: Civility and Civil Discourse Character Development o Addressing Fear, Failure, and Feedback Preparing for the future through innovation Design theory Technology The business of lawyering and marketing/branding Addresses the disruptions facing the profession (via changes such as artificial intelligence) and suggests a way forward Takes a fresh look at the issues facing those who would join the profession and gives meaningful, relevant guidance to prepare lawyers to be their best as they serve their clients and communities Professors and students will benefit from: A modular nature due to its multipartite organization, making the book uniquely adaptable for different settings, including: Leadership as a full course, incorporating a module into doctrinal courses, or providing leadership training in a professional development setting, and more A roadmap for teaching these concepts in an easy-to-understand manner that allows for flexibility and adaptability via its teaching framework A book and comprehensive resources written and designed for both new and experienced professors The emphasis of the themes of life-long professional development, lawyers’ ethical obligations, and service throughout

Download or read book Values at Sea written by Dorinda G. Dallmeyer and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human impact on vast areas of the oceans remains relatively unregulated. Sometimes, in fact, the only controls over our exploitation of marine resources lie in our environmental consciousness. While the field of environmental ethics has explored rights and duties for land use, stewardship, and policy, relatively little attention has been given to comparable issues of marine environments. Values at Sea makes an important step toward moving environmental ethics discussions into a broader framework. Gathered here are fifteen papers by an interdisciplinary group of scholars, including ethicists, marine scientists, anthropologists, economists, geographers, lawyers, and activists. From the Great Lakes to the Pacific Islands, from the open sea to coastal areas, the papers cover a broad array of ethical issues and policy matters related to such topics as the valuation of marine life, indigenous peoples’ knowledge and environmental stewardship, endemic and exotic species, aquaculture, oil spills, and species protection.
