Human Performance and Latent Causes

Failsafe Network’s podcast, Human Performance and Latent Causes, offers an in-depth look at why things go wrong at work-and how to genuinely fix them without the blame game. Hosted by Rob Statham, this program emphasizes the use of Latent Cause Analysis to uncover latency, the hidden factors in our culture, and the habits that lead to incidents. Think of it as peeling back layers of normal to reveal what’s truly sabotaging performance. Almost every Friday, you get a new episode filled with expert insights on learning from incidents, not just pointing fingers. Rob hosts the show, drawing on Failsafe’s decades of experience in understanding why things go wrong.

The vibe is conversational, like talking with a wise mentor-no fluff, just practical tools to identify and eliminate those hidden causes before they cause bigger problems. Whether you’re in safety, management, or simply curious about human performance, it helps you create better systems and cultures. If you’re into root cause analysis but want something more effective, this is it. Seriously, it’s transformative for anyone tired of making the same mistakes.
