Counter-Errorism in Diving: Applying Human Factors to Diving Gareth Lock at The Human Diver Human factors is a critical topic within the world of SCUBA diving, scientific diving, military diving, and commercial diving. This podcast is a mixture of interviews and 'shorts' which are audio versions of the weekly blog from The Human Diver.Each month we will look to have at least one interview and one case study discussion where we look at an event in detail and how human factors and non-technical skills contributed (or prevented) it from happening in the manner it did. Getting There Heavybit A show about publicly-facing incidents, resilience, and human factors in computer systems. Human Performance and Latent Causes Robert E. Statham, subject matter expert in Latent Cause Analysis for Human Performance. 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.

It is a biological computer that is programmed to be self regulating and self healing. Certain factors in our thinking, behaviour or environment can interrupt our body’s natural ability to self heal and when that is removed people can experience rapid healing and often a reversal of symptoms. Everyone has the ability to make great improvements to their physical, emotional and mental health.Vesna has worked with thousands of people to assist them in accessing their truth and unlocking their own healing energy and now through her podcast, she hopes to be able to help you too.
