Behavioural Analysis and Design
Behavioural Analysis and Design (BAD)
is a technique that explores the circumstances around incidents and breaches, to identify the influences of the local environment on the individuals within it.
It uses principles from behavioural science and other human sciences. B.A.D. helps explore why people did what they did getting a result that they probably weren’t expecting.
Two main premises are held in mind when exploring incidents in this way.
1 – They did not think they would get injured, or cause damage to themselves or others. They did not come to work that morning to get injured or malign.
2 – The incident was made likely because of the circumstances in the local environment. Which, in turn were made likely by the circumstances in the organisation and, the industry. It was almost designed to happen.
We have three versions of our B.A.D. toolkits; Behavioural Incident Analysis, the original toolkit, as well as two others, specifically for Assurance and Security.
Each toolkit works on the same principles and uses the Performance Equation as an analysis and design framework.
Behavioural Science Meets Assurance
Rectifying mistakes or finding yourself unable to hand over a project because you lack the proof that it was correctly built can lead to massive financial costs or worse a truly dangerous project. Our Behaviour Design workshop combines the power of behavioural science with assurance and verification expertise. Learn how to identify the behaviours holding back your project and understand the behaviours you actually need. Using our Behaviour Design Toolkit you will design an environment to get more of the behaviours you want and less of behaviours that stand in the way of an effective project.
Behavioural Incident Analysis Workshop
Behavioural Incident Analysis is a technique developed by Sodak built on the principles of behavioural and evolutionary science, and design thinking to enable a better understanding of human behaviour and the environments in which they occur. Learn techniques to better understand why incidents occur and design environments that promote safer and healthier work practices through the application of behavioural science. Nudge for safety.
Behavioural Science Meets Security
Learn how Behavioural Science can provide an intelligent and considered method for dealing with the human behaviours that lead to cyber attacks and data breaches. This workshop will give you the tools and the know-how to help you apply Behavioural Science to achieve a more secure workplace.
What they say about the BIA...
"...it enabled us to create a true blame free culture when looking into an incident..."
Nick Jordan, Network Rail
"The Behavioral Incident Analysis (BIA) tool is a game changer. It allows you to facilitate in a consistent way that always leads to reducing risk in an environment."
Robert George, Revere Copper
