Activity Overview 

High reliability is an ongoing process or an organizational frame of mind, not a specific structure.  High-reliability organizations work to create an environment in which potential problems are anticipated, detected early, and virtually always responded to early enough to prevent catastrophic consequences. Such foundational work includes developing a leadership commitment to zero-harm goals, establishing a positive safety culture, and instituting a robust process improvement culture. This session will review and describe high-reliability principles and strategies for applying them. This webinar is the first in a two-part series.
