Matt Thorne Understanding Culture Differently
SafetyRisk
December 16, 2023
Any approach that seeks an understanding of culture requires a sophisticated sense of ‘knowing’ because, culture in itself cannot be defined or controlled like some would like. Indeed, in seeking to define (and control) Culture one already reduces it by a method of reductionism. That is, culture cannot be defined propositionally. Neither can culture be dissected through science. You can’t know Culture by going to a dictionary to find meaning. Such an approach just gives a dictionary definition but loses all the nuances of meaning gained through engagement, living, being, context, Socialitie and experience.

SPoR and Semiotics, Methods to Tackle Risk
Scotoma Press
November 17, 2023
SPoR and Semiotics is a book primarily for people interested and studied in the methodology of SPoR. Without an education in SPoR, many of the methods in the book won’t make sense. Similarly, if one can’t think semiotically, the rationale of the book won’t make much sense either.

Risk Diversity
October 22, 2024
Organisational Culture and Psychosocial Risk and Hazards are currently two of the greatest challenges organisations currently face.

And this challenges are greatly exacerbated by the fact that very few organisations have any expertise in Social Psychology.

Dr Robert Long created the MiProfile Cultural Diagnostic Survey Tool to help organisations understand what is happening in their organisation and to help shift Culture to a better place and understanding.

Risk Diversity has an exclusive license to operate MiProfile and invites you look at this collection of materials.
