The most dangerous part of a workplace is often what no one notices.
Small shortcuts, accepted workarounds, and repeated behaviors slowly blend into the background until they become “the way we do things here.” Safety VIEWS Safety CUES reveals how these patterns form—and how leaders can interrupt them before they lead to harm./
Building on the leadership principles introduced in Safety WALK Safety TALK, the book explores why people follow certain behaviors in the first place. Through practical examples, stories, and behavioral science, he introduces the Views → Cues Loop™—a framework showing how workplace culture is shaped through what people see, how they interpret it, what gets reinforced, and what eventually becomes accepted as normal.
Inside the book, you’ll discover:
- Why shortcuts gradually become normal
- How trusted employees influence group behavior
- How pressure changes decision-making
- Why people follow cues over procedures
- What leaders can do to intentionally shape safer work
Readers also receive access to a free downloadable Companion Workbook filled with field tools, observation worksheets, facilitator guides, and team exercises designed for real-world application on the shop floor or in the field.
Practical, thought-provoking, and highly relatable, Safety VIEWS Safety CUES challenges leaders to look beyond policies and procedures—and start paying attention to the signals that are truly shaping the work.
Because if you don’t intentionally shape the cues surrounding the work, the work will shape your culture on its own.
