00:00:00.017 --> 00:00:04.237
So today, let's have a little chat. Not a big chat. I mean, don't freak out.

00:00:04.297 --> 00:00:05.497
It's not going to be too serious.

00:00:05.857 --> 00:00:11.877
But let's have a little chat about how do we know what we're doing makes a difference.

00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:24.720
Music.

00:00:24.137 --> 00:00:28.737
Hey, everybody, Todd Conklin, Pre-Accident Investigation Podcast. How are you?

00:00:30.097 --> 00:00:32.917
Well it's a great time it's a great

00:00:32.917 --> 00:00:35.937
day to be alive the sun's still shining

00:00:35.937 --> 00:00:38.577
and something else i'm trying to think of the

00:00:38.577 --> 00:00:41.337
rest of the song like it's it's just a good time to be

00:00:41.337 --> 00:00:44.677
here and i'm so pleased to do so so

00:00:44.677 --> 00:00:47.477
i got one of those one of those rings you wear that

00:00:47.477 --> 00:00:51.157
tells you if your heart's beating and

00:00:51.157 --> 00:00:53.837
it's kind of bio feedback it's kind

00:00:53.837 --> 00:00:56.637
of the same feedback that the

00:00:56.637 --> 00:00:59.817
apple watch gives you kind of or android

00:00:59.817 --> 00:01:05.737
watch if you have one of those i'm not being snooty but they make rings that

00:01:05.737 --> 00:01:18.237
do it and they had i'm so cheap they had they had this deal where if you wanted a black one size.

00:01:19.610 --> 00:01:23.430
13, no, a size 14, something like that. Size 13 or 14.

00:01:24.110 --> 00:01:28.910
It was a huge, like half, it was less than half price, brand new.

00:01:29.530 --> 00:01:34.570
I thought I should try this. So I started wearing this ring that tells you if you're happy or not.

00:01:34.850 --> 00:01:39.010
And you know what? I, I learned, I didn't, this is great to know.

00:01:39.410 --> 00:01:44.750
I'm mostly joyous and happy according to my ring. And if the ring says it, it must be true.

00:01:44.910 --> 00:01:48.470
I mean, that's all I can tell you. If the ring says it, it has to be true.

00:01:48.970 --> 00:01:53.710
And so I've been getting this biofeedback. I can tell you, you know,

00:01:53.790 --> 00:02:01.550
how much I breathe and what my resting pulse is and how my sleep quality is.

00:02:01.750 --> 00:02:03.550
It's quite a bit of information.

00:02:03.850 --> 00:02:08.130
It kind of reminds me of working in safety, where you just measure a whole bunch

00:02:08.130 --> 00:02:10.850
of stuff so that if you have a lot of numbers,

00:02:11.110 --> 00:02:13.970
then you must be good because I mean here you

00:02:13.970 --> 00:02:17.010
have it doesn't tell me what to do with

00:02:17.010 --> 00:02:20.110
this data so I don't really know what is good

00:02:20.110 --> 00:02:23.930
and what's bad what's right and wrong but I have lots and lots of information

00:02:23.930 --> 00:02:28.950
and so I'm enjoying the ring we'll see stay with me on this we'll see see how

00:02:28.950 --> 00:02:35.550
long I keep the ring in the rotation so because I don't have a lot of sunk cost

00:02:35.550 --> 00:02:38.270
in it it's not like it cost, you know, $500.

00:02:38.770 --> 00:02:42.950
I mean, it was because I didn't care what color it was.

00:02:43.070 --> 00:02:47.750
And it was the largest one they had. It's kind of like my Christmas Crocs.

00:02:48.170 --> 00:02:52.310
So I got Christmas Crocs because they were on sale. And when you see them,

00:02:52.530 --> 00:02:56.570
they're green, red and white and covered in glitter.

00:02:57.010 --> 00:03:00.570
And they're fur lined with green fuzzy fleece.

00:03:01.090 --> 00:03:05.330
And it's hard to believe that they were on such a good sale because I can't

00:03:05.330 --> 00:03:07.150
believe people didn't just buy a million of them.

00:03:07.310 --> 00:03:13.430
That's kind of where I am on that. But nonetheless, it's another journey into feedback town.

00:03:13.610 --> 00:03:18.930
And that's kind of what this wearable, which I'm pretty hip. Do you hear me being hip?

00:03:19.410 --> 00:03:24.870
That's what the kids call these devices, the wearables and the data it gives you.

00:03:24.970 --> 00:03:29.570
Now, to me, what's so interesting is what will happen with that data?

00:03:29.830 --> 00:03:36.090
Are they collecting it in the grand data scheme for the whole world,

00:03:36.090 --> 00:03:37.750
for everyone who wears one of these rings?

00:03:38.230 --> 00:03:41.950
Or is it just for me? Is it really health data? Is it not health data?

00:03:42.270 --> 00:03:47.350
There is a lot going on here. And that makes it kind of a worthwhile.

00:03:49.470 --> 00:03:52.090
Adventure. At least it's kind of fun. Plus, it's something to do.

00:03:52.390 --> 00:03:54.890
And it's another piece of gear. And who doesn't like, you know,

00:03:54.970 --> 00:03:56.450
having another piece of gear to mess with?

00:03:56.770 --> 00:04:02.690
Other than that, Things are great. I had a wonderful Thanksgiving time in the United States with,

00:04:02.970 --> 00:04:06.230
in fact, it looks like I'm going to have three Thanksgivings,

00:04:06.430 --> 00:04:12.390
which is in essence, or I had three Thanksgivings, which in essence is,

00:04:12.410 --> 00:04:15.250
you know, the perfect way to survive.

00:04:16.144 --> 00:04:20.544
Because I could live forever. I'm not the hugest fan of turkey because I think

00:04:20.544 --> 00:04:22.364
turkey generally is kind of boring.

00:04:23.044 --> 00:04:27.924
It's just a boring, it's boring. And I know I'll offend people.

00:04:28.184 --> 00:04:30.544
The pro-turkey crowd, big turkey is going to hate me.

00:04:30.984 --> 00:04:33.804
But I just find it kind of boring.

00:04:35.124 --> 00:04:39.004
It's not a meat with a lot of personality. Let's just say that.

00:04:39.184 --> 00:04:43.324
Okay, let's get that out there. But all the stuff you have with it,

00:04:43.784 --> 00:04:47.704
the mashed potatoes, the dressing.

00:04:48.524 --> 00:04:55.604
The specialized vegetable dishes, the multitude of pies, that is a pretty good ride.

00:04:55.804 --> 00:05:00.724
And so the fact that I got to go three times makes me three times as happy.

00:05:00.864 --> 00:05:06.744
So my ring should say I'm triple joyful and triple happy. If the data matters

00:05:06.744 --> 00:05:10.744
and it's collected, then that would help me understand where that data is.

00:05:11.184 --> 00:05:15.084
And isn't that what it's all about? Yes, it is. That is what it's all about.

00:05:15.564 --> 00:05:17.924
So that's kind of an update.

00:05:18.544 --> 00:05:23.164
Looking forward, next year is promising to be relatively exciting.

00:05:23.724 --> 00:05:29.524
I'll bring you in on the details on that. Lots of really interesting podcast stuff happening.

00:05:29.844 --> 00:05:32.804
Just because there's a lot of people that want to be on the pod right now.

00:05:32.804 --> 00:05:37.944
And so that's that's been kind of fun and then we've got the secret project going,

00:05:38.684 --> 00:05:42.284
jenny long and i have a secret project and that's

00:05:42.284 --> 00:05:45.164
almost done so in fact that might it that could

00:05:45.164 --> 00:05:49.844
be done by now too because i'm not in charge of it so which is by the way the

00:05:49.844 --> 00:05:54.044
perfect way to be if you can be not in charge of something you should you know

00:05:54.044 --> 00:05:57.024
if you don't have to be the trip leader don't be the trip leader that's what

00:05:57.024 --> 00:06:03.184
i say so all that's good and uh we can move forward And that's exactly what we're going to do.

00:06:08.024 --> 00:06:11.764
So one of the questions I want to ask you, because I think it's a reasonable

00:06:11.764 --> 00:06:16.284
question, and please, whatever you say as an answer is a fine answer.

00:06:16.464 --> 00:06:21.184
Don't think there's a right answer or a wrong answer or feel guilty or joyous.

00:06:21.764 --> 00:06:26.344
It's just a question, and that's all it is. In the best way I can ask this question,

00:06:26.504 --> 00:06:30.164
it's not laden with a bunch of meaning. It's just a question.

00:06:30.844 --> 00:06:36.164
And the question I want to ask you is, how is your work going?

00:06:36.264 --> 00:06:39.524
And I don't mean how do you feel about your work, although that's important

00:06:39.524 --> 00:06:40.804
and I'll talk to you about that anytime.

00:06:41.484 --> 00:06:44.584
But how's the work you're doing in your organization going?

00:06:45.344 --> 00:06:49.304
How's it happening? What do you think is going on?

00:06:49.304 --> 00:06:52.224
And part of what we are challenged by,

00:06:52.404 --> 00:06:57.284
which is kind of why I think I talked about the ring that keeps bio data or

00:06:57.284 --> 00:07:01.004
the watch that keeps bio data or the fact that your phone kind of keeps bio

00:07:01.004 --> 00:07:05.724
data is because collecting data is valuable.

00:07:06.917 --> 00:07:11.957
But it's the interpretation of the data. It's what the data means that is the

00:07:11.957 --> 00:07:13.357
most important part of it.

00:07:13.777 --> 00:07:16.797
And one of the challenges, I really think we have it.

00:07:16.897 --> 00:07:21.857
It's a pretty interesting challenge is that I'll bet you have lots of numeric

00:07:21.857 --> 00:07:25.677
data collected on the status of your organization.

00:07:25.837 --> 00:07:30.917
A pretty good bet that you guys measure a bunch of stuff and you track it and

00:07:30.917 --> 00:07:35.517
you trend it and And you look at it, and that data is there.

00:07:35.957 --> 00:07:41.577
But one of the things that I think is missing, and it's probably because it's

00:07:41.577 --> 00:07:45.057
not terribly empirical, so it's not very scientific.

00:07:45.977 --> 00:07:50.037
And yet, I would suggest it's incredibly important.

00:07:50.517 --> 00:07:54.957
And that is asking people how they feel about your program.

00:07:55.517 --> 00:07:59.997
How they feel about the work you do. How they feel about the organization.

00:07:59.997 --> 00:08:05.697
And not in some survey, because I think people are incredibly over surveyed,

00:08:06.317 --> 00:08:07.677
remarkably over surveyed.

00:08:08.357 --> 00:08:13.217
In fact, I would suggest one of the things that we suffer from is something called survey fatigue.

00:08:13.817 --> 00:08:20.757
We take so many surveys so often for so many reasons that they no longer really

00:08:20.757 --> 00:08:22.017
are terribly meaningful.

00:08:22.677 --> 00:08:26.977
I mean, if you think about it, how many times have you been asked to rate an app? A bunch.

00:08:27.317 --> 00:08:30.937
I mean, that's a survey. That's what that is. It's a Likert scale.

00:08:31.577 --> 00:08:37.017
And it's not very meaningful. And so what we really need to do,

00:08:37.157 --> 00:08:42.417
and most of us, I think, probably are pretty good at this, is to actually go

00:08:42.417 --> 00:08:46.097
out and talk to the people who make up our organization.

00:08:46.897 --> 00:08:50.977
And so the question I want to ask, the one without a lot of agenda to it,

00:08:51.317 --> 00:08:57.677
is when's the last time you went out and asked people how the organization is doing?

00:08:58.417 --> 00:09:06.117
Just an open-ended, big, fat, non-empirical, feeling-based, qualitative data

00:09:06.117 --> 00:09:09.277
question that says, how are we doing?

00:09:10.037 --> 00:09:14.277
Because I want to suggest to you that that question, even though it's hard to

00:09:14.277 --> 00:09:21.817
track, it's hard to trend, it's hard to measure, is incredibly interesting and vitally important.

00:09:23.057 --> 00:09:29.057
Asking that question opens up a conversation. It opens up an opportunity to tell you how.

00:09:29.177 --> 00:09:33.697
Because one of the things you have to bargain for is if you ask people how we're

00:09:33.697 --> 00:09:38.617
doing, then you have to be brave enough to accept the answer they give you.

00:09:39.477 --> 00:09:43.257
And sometimes they're going to tell you we're not doing that good.

00:09:44.232 --> 00:09:47.672
We could be better here. We suck here. This is not effective.

00:09:47.992 --> 00:09:53.612
And because those things are in the conversation, that's a really important

00:09:53.612 --> 00:09:59.052
part of what we want to talk about with the people who make up our organization.

00:09:59.492 --> 00:10:02.972
Because the expertise they bring to the table is quite remarkable.

00:10:03.112 --> 00:10:04.672
It's vital, too. It's important.

00:10:05.152 --> 00:10:09.412
But what it really does is allows this conversation to happen.

00:10:10.112 --> 00:10:13.632
And change, as you know, because we've talked about it a bunch before.

00:10:14.572 --> 00:10:20.732
Change happens organizationally, not on a strategic plan, not in a project plan

00:10:20.732 --> 00:10:24.992
for change management, but it happens one conversation at a time.

00:10:24.992 --> 00:10:30.812
And what takes place when you ask how we're doing is we open up the opportunity

00:10:30.812 --> 00:10:36.692
for conversations to happen that could potentially change everyone,

00:10:37.172 --> 00:10:40.912
not just the workers doing the work, the workers who have the expertise on your

00:10:40.912 --> 00:10:46.972
system's rigidity or flexibility or resilience or your system's brittleness,

00:10:47.492 --> 00:10:48.772
your system's weaknesses.

00:10:48.772 --> 00:10:53.612
Workers understand that really well, but it also changes the conversation that

00:10:53.612 --> 00:10:56.092
leaders have about their organization.

00:10:56.372 --> 00:11:01.972
And they start to talk differently about what's happening in that organization

00:11:01.972 --> 00:11:05.452
and what they're hearing happening in that organization.

00:11:05.792 --> 00:11:09.392
And it makes quite a change.

00:11:09.972 --> 00:11:16.852
So I spent about a week working on a project where we really addressed one kind

00:11:16.852 --> 00:11:18.152
of interesting question.

00:11:18.772 --> 00:11:27.752
And that was the workers who work for us are changing what they need and want.

00:11:28.775 --> 00:11:37.935
Are our organizations reflecting that changing desire and demand from the workforce? That was the question.

00:11:38.775 --> 00:11:42.855
And it was really an interesting question because, man, I learned a ton.

00:11:43.155 --> 00:11:50.715
I learned that organizations that are actually quite successful now in sort

00:11:50.715 --> 00:11:56.355
of contemporary operations build relationships quickly with their workforce.

00:11:56.835 --> 00:12:00.455
That's really important. and they create a sense of connectedness.

00:12:00.775 --> 00:12:06.195
And that relationship building, that quick relationship building is oftentimes

00:12:06.195 --> 00:12:13.235
what would normally be kind of the probationary period is now seen as an opportunity

00:12:13.235 --> 00:12:15.775
to build this very quick relationship,

00:12:16.275 --> 00:12:21.675
full well knowing that the same company that builds really quick relationships

00:12:21.675 --> 00:12:27.275
also has learned how to say very quick goodbyes.

00:12:27.275 --> 00:12:32.995
So they no longer see workers as a long-term part of their strategy,

00:12:32.995 --> 00:12:38.155
as a long-term investment operationally, as somebody that'll come in on day

00:12:38.155 --> 00:12:40.095
one and stay 25 years and leave.

00:12:40.555 --> 00:12:43.895
They've built a system where it's easy to get into the company.

00:12:44.355 --> 00:12:51.095
It's easy to feel welcomed, which dramatically influences performance and sort

00:12:51.095 --> 00:12:53.535
of helps build culture, believe it or not.

00:12:53.535 --> 00:13:00.335
Full well knowing that the relationship will be short term and very functional.

00:13:00.575 --> 00:13:04.395
It'll serve a purpose and it will end quickly.

00:13:05.378 --> 00:13:12.318
Now, I don't know how you feel about that. I'm an old guy with old guy ideas and old guy stuff.

00:13:12.758 --> 00:13:19.698
That just seems complete opposite of what my entire career was spent doing,

00:13:20.118 --> 00:13:27.118
building long-term relationships with development path and an arc and a salary

00:13:27.118 --> 00:13:34.378
management strategy over years to develop workers into the next layer of leadership.

00:13:34.378 --> 00:13:40.498
And what we're learning from our observations, from our conversations with companies,

00:13:40.518 --> 00:13:44.678
is that, in fact, that's not terribly successful.

00:13:44.998 --> 00:13:49.578
In fact, what they told me is that it's kind of disappointing.

00:13:50.038 --> 00:13:52.138
You'll always kind of have your feelings hurt.

00:13:52.818 --> 00:13:58.078
Instead, you want to build connectedness quick. So build friendships quickly,

00:13:58.538 --> 00:14:03.638
build the relationship early, full well knowing that it's impermanent.

00:14:04.378 --> 00:14:09.078
It won't last forever. It can't last forever. And nobody wants it to last forever.

00:14:09.718 --> 00:14:15.698
That's a really interesting challenge. And it sort of builds the case for are

00:14:15.698 --> 00:14:19.158
we out there talking to the people that work with us?

00:14:19.638 --> 00:14:22.118
And the more I thought about this, because, you know, I was in the middle of

00:14:22.118 --> 00:14:25.278
this big discussion and it was freaking me out. I'll just be honest.

00:14:25.458 --> 00:14:29.218
It was quite the dramatic freak out.

00:14:29.738 --> 00:14:33.118
It made me think i don't think at least

00:14:33.118 --> 00:14:36.018
for me personally i'm going into the field

00:14:36.018 --> 00:14:39.438
and having the right conversations i think i go to the field more

00:14:39.438 --> 00:14:46.798
like a anthropologist you know to learn to watch observe learn to really stand

00:14:46.798 --> 00:14:51.738
there and pay attention to what's going on and i think what's missing is the

00:14:51.738 --> 00:14:57.018
opportunity to have that conversation because i wish i had known that this idea

00:14:57.018 --> 00:14:58.798
of building relationships fast,

00:14:59.018 --> 00:15:03.558
creating connectivity quickly, and knowing it's impermanent and will end.

00:15:03.778 --> 00:15:08.458
So building sort of strategies to end the relationship quickly was going on.

00:15:09.511 --> 00:15:13.651
But it is. I mean, that's definitely happening. And companies that are good

00:15:13.651 --> 00:15:18.651
at sort of functioning in this contemporary reality are good at doing those things.

00:15:18.891 --> 00:15:23.071
They do other things as well. I mean, there's way more information. I learned a ton.

00:15:24.031 --> 00:15:28.831
That is dramatic. And I don't want to be caught off guard. Neither do you.

00:15:29.211 --> 00:15:34.851
I mean, the thing that I've always tried to remember is that not knowing does not make you smarter.

00:15:35.451 --> 00:15:39.871
And so if you're caught off, if you're surprised, that means you didn't know.

00:15:40.071 --> 00:15:41.971
And if you didn't know, it means you didn't ask.

00:15:42.431 --> 00:15:50.571
And so I started thinking, well, you know, I think I have to shift from my observer of workers,

00:15:51.171 --> 00:15:58.191
kind of an awe-inspired observer of workers, to really more of a person who's having conversations.

00:15:58.891 --> 00:16:04.511
Who's not just learning, but also building relationships and communicating.

00:16:05.311 --> 00:16:10.671
That was really earth shattering to me. I mean, I would totally be interested

00:16:10.671 --> 00:16:11.531
in what you're thinking.

00:16:11.951 --> 00:16:17.591
Cause it just, I was just like, wow, that happened. That's kind of amazing.

00:16:18.131 --> 00:16:22.471
I mean, that's, that's sort of remarkable to me that that took place.

00:16:22.951 --> 00:16:31.151
And that what I was learning is that ultimately I was going to the right places.

00:16:31.151 --> 00:16:34.731
I don't feel like I was not doing it I was doing what I thought was the right

00:16:34.731 --> 00:16:38.511
thing to do, but I just was not having the right conversations.

00:16:38.911 --> 00:16:44.211
And what's remarkable about not having the right conversations is that you learn

00:16:44.211 --> 00:16:47.871
quickly it's you, not them.

00:16:49.013 --> 00:16:53.953
And that's pretty meaningful. I mean, it's kind of a little bit of slap in the

00:16:53.953 --> 00:16:59.913
facey, a little bit of, hey, your baby's ugly, but also kind of encouraging in that,

00:17:00.153 --> 00:17:06.913
as Charlie McMillan, one of my impressive bosses at Los Alamos said to me,

00:17:07.333 --> 00:17:09.753
sometimes we drift into the wrong question.

00:17:10.233 --> 00:17:16.793
And that's okay, as long as we check it. The power we have to go to the field

00:17:16.793 --> 00:17:23.013
and simply build conversations about how it's going is remarkable. It's not measurable.

00:17:23.493 --> 00:17:28.873
It's probably not trackable and trendable, although AI is allowing us to trend

00:17:28.873 --> 00:17:31.293
conversations in ways I never imagined would be true.

00:17:31.433 --> 00:17:37.413
But it's not traditional data collection, but it probably is important data

00:17:37.413 --> 00:17:42.673
collection. And so those conversations you have going out to the field to ask

00:17:42.673 --> 00:17:45.233
those questions, you've done it forever.

00:17:45.713 --> 00:17:51.013
Those conversations are a really, really important component to creating success,

00:17:51.013 --> 00:17:56.413
not just safety success or reliability success or resilience,

00:17:56.413 --> 00:17:59.153
but also operational success,

00:17:59.613 --> 00:18:01.533
emotional and personal success.

00:18:02.313 --> 00:18:05.973
You're really creating the culture you want to have and

00:18:05.973 --> 00:18:09.053
you're doing it through a series of conversations and the benefit and

00:18:09.053 --> 00:18:11.733
it's a pretty big benefit is that you get to

00:18:11.733 --> 00:18:17.293
learn learning is a powerful tool no question about it and getting the opportunity

00:18:17.293 --> 00:18:24.253
to learn well that's worth its weight in gold so that is a little podcast not

00:18:24.253 --> 00:18:28.273
a big one i told you it's just gonna be a little conversation but i think it's

00:18:28.273 --> 00:18:31.153
an important conversation it's the one we should be having.

00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:38.640
Music.

00:18:38.903 --> 00:18:44.663
So where does this all take us? Well, there's a good little epilogue to everything we've talked about.

00:18:44.823 --> 00:18:51.263
And that is that I'm going to encourage you this next year as part of your resolution

00:18:51.263 --> 00:18:58.363
to actually build more time to have conversations with groups of workers asking

00:18:58.363 --> 00:19:03.443
pretty direct questions about how we're doing. How's it going?

00:19:04.223 --> 00:19:08.803
How's work control, work management working? Where are the pain points?

00:19:09.483 --> 00:19:13.283
Where are we safe? Where are we not safe? Where are we fragile and brittle?

00:19:13.723 --> 00:19:15.603
Where are we robust and resilient?

00:19:16.223 --> 00:19:21.323
And having those conversations with pretty great regularity not only gives you

00:19:21.323 --> 00:19:23.843
information, which means you're going to have to do work. I mean,

00:19:23.943 --> 00:19:25.063
there's no question about that.

00:19:25.343 --> 00:19:30.523
But it also gives you the opportunity to really craft the environment you hope you have.

00:19:30.723 --> 00:19:33.803
Build that notion that it's okay to tell you the truth.

00:19:34.283 --> 00:19:37.363
And that even more importantly, it's okay to push the boundaries of that.

00:19:37.983 --> 00:19:42.263
Let me tell you where we have to break the rule in order to get the work done.

00:19:42.863 --> 00:19:45.983
Because knowing that before something bad happens, well, that's the very best

00:19:45.983 --> 00:19:50.803
time to know that. You know that as well as I do. And it also makes it kind of groovy and cool.

00:19:51.763 --> 00:19:56.743
And I think you'll find it to be a really important tool. If you're not using

00:19:56.743 --> 00:20:01.983
it already, and probably all of us are, but I wonder if we've decided and learned

00:20:01.983 --> 00:20:04.863
how to leverage it to really make a difference.

00:20:05.683 --> 00:20:07.903
That, I think, is a cool thing to talk about.

00:20:09.043 --> 00:20:12.963
Have fun. I mean, I'm wishing you the best. It's going to be a grand,

00:20:13.163 --> 00:20:17.123
grand time. We're right in the middle of, you know, all the stuff happening, so that's cool.

00:20:17.823 --> 00:20:20.503
Learn something new every single day. Have as much fun as you possibly can.

00:20:20.543 --> 00:20:24.163
Be good to each other. Be kind to each other. And for goodness sakes, you guys, be safe.

00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:35.926
Music.
