Learning from incidents without stopping at blame
Incident investigation examines what happened, the conditions that made it possible and what needs to change. Loss-causation models can provide useful prompts, but conclusions should be grounded in evidence rather than selected to fit a preferred theory.
Use a suitably anonymised event or near miss to discuss timelines, interviews and the difference between immediate and underlying factors. Protect confidential information and avoid prejudging responsibility. The output should support practical corrective actions and a way to check their effectiveness.
