  • Just Culture - Restoring Trust and Accountability in Your Organisation - cover

    Just Culture - Restoring Trust...

    A just culture is a culture of trust, learning and accountability. It is particularly important when an incident has occurred; when something has gone wrong. How do you respond to the people involved? What do you do to minimize the negative impact, and maximize learning? 
    This third edition of Sidney Dekkera (TM)s extremely successful Just Culture offers new material on restorative justice and ideas about why your people may be breaking rules. Supported by extensive case material, you will learn about safety reporting and honest disclosure, about retributive just culture and about the criminalization of human error. 
    Some suspect a just culture means letting people off the hook. Yet they believe they need to remain able to hold people accountable for undesirable performance. In this new edition, Dekker asks you to look at 'accountability' in different ways. One is by asking which rule was broken, who did it, whether that behavior crossed some line, and what the appropriate consequences should be. In this retributive sense, an 'account' is something you get people to pay, or settle. But who will draw that line? And is the process fair? 
    Another way to approach accountability after an incident is to ask who was hurt. To ask what their needs are. And to explore whose obligation it is to meet those needs. People involved in causing the incident may well want to participate in meeting those needs. In this restorative sense, an 'account' is something you get people to tell, and others to listen to. 
    Learn to look at accountability in different ways and your impact on restoring trust, learning and a sense of humanity in your organization could be enormous.

    Quiet Collapse The: How Everyday...

    We often imagine environmental destruction as something loud and spectacular — burning forests, melting ice, rising seas. But what if the real collapse is happening quietly, in our shopping carts, kitchens, wardrobes, and inboxes? 
    The Quiet Collapse reveals how the rhythms of daily life — what we eat, buy, drive, and even stream — are silently transforming the planet’s systems. Through vivid storytelling and clear-eyed investigation, this book uncovers the hidden environmental costs behind ordinary habits, from the water footprint of a cup of coffee to the carbon trail of a single online purchase. 
    Yet this isn’t a story of despair. Author Alex Southwick shows that the same everyday actions fueling the problem also hold the power to change it. By reconnecting personal choice with planetary impact, The Quiet Collapse invites readers to see themselves not as passive participants in crisis, but as active agents in renewal. 
    Illuminating, hopeful, and unflinchingly honest, this is the book that makes climate change feel both intimate and actionable — not a distant catastrophe, but a quiet revolution beginning in our own lives.

    Sustainability in urban contexts represents a pivotal concept in addressing the challenges posed by rapid urbanization and environmental degradation. As cities grow exponentially, they have become both the epicenters of human activity and the focal points of environmental stress. Defining sustainability in the urban realm requires a holistic understanding of how economic, social, and environmental systems can coexist harmoniously within densely populated areas. The essence of sustainable urban development lies in creating cities that meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to thrive. 
    Urban sustainability emphasizes the importance of balancing growth and development with environmental stewardship. This involves minimizing the negative impacts of urbanization, such as pollution, resource depletion, and biodiversity loss, while enhancing the quality of life for residents. Sustainable cities are designed to be inclusive, equitable, and resilient, promoting social cohesion and economic vitality alongside ecological preservation. Key principles include efficient resource management, integration of renewable energy, sustainable transportation systems, and the adoption of green infrastructure. 
    Central to this concept is the recognition that cities are complex, interdependent systems. Housing, transportation, energy, water, and waste management are all interconnected elements that must be addressed cohesively to achieve sustainability. For example, designing energy-efficient buildings can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but such efforts must be complemented by policies that encourage renewable energy adoption and sustainable urban planning. Similarly, enhancing public transportation systems can alleviate traffic congestion and reduce emissions while improving accessibility for marginalized communities.
