The A-ha Moment That Changed How I See Safety 18:36

5 days ago18:36

18:36

What if the way we handle emergencies could also be applied to everyday life? In this episode, Jimmy breaks down the safety hierarchy, who to take care of first in an emergency, and why this is important even outside of the safety field. He explains why prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish, it’s strategic, and how this shift in thinking can make you a stronger partner, leader, team member, or decision-maker. But the real a-ha moment? A conversation with his wife. Jimmy realized that the Incident Command System (ICS) - originally designed for emergency response situations - might offer some insight into navigating daily personal responsibilities too. Whether it’s tackling workplace challenges or managing family logistics, Jimmy explores how reassessing priorities, adapting to changing situations, and working as a team can create a more effective, less stressful approach to both crises at work and in everyday life.
