Live Virtual Program   Safety and Risk

Rethinking incidents,
investigations and
risk controls.

Most serious incidents do not begin with a rule violation. They begin with pressure. Pressure to meet targets, manage competing priorities, and make decisions with incomplete information. Limbic Risk gives leaders a practical framework to identify those conditions before they contribute to a serious event.

The challenge is not simply human error

When attention becomes overloaded, competent people make mistakes. Hazards are overlooked. Critical decisions degrade. Procedures that normally work are missed.

The challenge is understanding the conditions that make human error more likely. Long before a serious event, there were competing priorities, interruptions, workload pressures, assumptions, and conditions that made failure more likely.

If investigations stop at human error, those conditions remain unchanged. Limbic Risk helps leaders identify the factors that shape human performance, improve investigations, and strengthen risk controls before the next incident occurs.

This is not a webinar Live simulations, breakout room discussions, real incident analysis, interactive polls, and practical workplace application exercises.

Program experience

Module 1
Why Good People Make Poor Decisions
Explore how pressure, workload, and competing priorities influence attention, judgement, and decision making in high-consequence environments.
Module 2   Live Simulation
The Supervisor's Day Simulation
Participants work in breakout teams to manage an evolving operational scenario involving production pressure, staffing challenges, competing priorities, and emerging safety concerns. The exercise reveals how risk develops long before an incident occurs.
Module 3
Seeing What Others Miss
Analyse real incidents and uncover the operational, organisational, and human performance conditions that existed long before the event occurred.
Module 4
Reframing Investigations
Move beyond human error and uncover the system factors that contributed to failure. Build investigation capability that identifies what actually drove the incident.
Module 5
Designing Controls That Work Under Pressure
Learn practical methods for creating controls that support human performance and improve decision making in real-world operations. Design systems that reduce reliance on memory, vigilance, and perfect human performance.

What your team will be able to do

Identify workplace conditions that increase the likelihood of error, poor decisions, and operational drift
Recognise early indicators that attention, decision quality, and situational awareness are degrading
Analyse incidents beyond human error and uncover contributing system conditions
Understand how workload, interruptions, fatigue, and competing priorities influence human performance
Apply the Limbic Risk model to real workplace scenarios
Design practical controls that reduce reliance on memory, vigilance, and perfect human performance

Your facilitator

Nada Wentzel
Mechanical Engineer  |  Master of Social Ecology  |  30+ years in high-consequence industry

Nada began her career as an offshore engineer. That frontline experience, combined with over 30 years across oil and gas, mining, energy, and heavy industry, gives her a perspective most safety consultants cannot match.

She holds qualifications in Mechanical Engineering and a Master's in Social Ecology focused on behavioural change. She has led complex global investigations across oil, gas, mining, and explosives, alongside large-scale safety culture transformations and operational programs that produced measurable results in high-consequence environments.

Limbic Risk is built on what she observed repeatedly across those 30 years: investigations that stopped at human error and systems that kept producing the same failures.

Outside of work, Nada ocean swims, hikes, and recently completed an 800km walk across Spain.

Every serious incident has a history.

Long before the event, there were conditions that made failure more likely. Limbic Risk gives your team the framework to see those conditions, investigate what actually drove the incident, and design controls that prevent it from happening again.
