Note on the script
The image below links to a PDF that is a weighty but imaginative book presenting a new theory of systems management, with a particular focus on occupational health and safety. It could appeal to health and safety managers or officers, or other compliance or systems personnel (both theorists and practitioners) who feel an ache of dissatisfaction about the current dispensation.
It is interdisciplinary, combining elements from depth-psychology, theory of mind, philosophy, metaphysics, New Age and old-age spiritualities, cybernetics, systems thinking, compliance, organisational culture, organisational design, and workplace politics. It is not an academic book, although it is a bit more than just self-help. It could apply to coaching, consultancy, thought leadership, or serve simply for personal consumption. It is not scientific, though it could be scientifically examined. It is built on imagination, inspiration, internal logic, and personal experience. It is eccentric, quirky, radical, integrative, and daringly novel – to the point of carving out its own genre.
Putting consciousness itself at the centre of governance systems, the text is phenomenological in its sweep, taking in personality theory, attachment theory, object relations, social perception, intrapsychic social psychology, and anthropology. The book’s central thesis is that health and safety is paradigmatically more personal than people take it to be, or would easily admit to. We sanitise our frailties and limitations with devices and habits which we dress up as technique but that are, in truth, disguises for our vulnerabilities. I cautiously crack the door on shuttered-off cells within our collective psyche and invite deeper enquiry into what’s really going on inside the cordoned-off areas of our regulatory minds.
I prescribe systemic reform, knowing it must start in the individual, as that is all we truly control. I point out consequences of our lack of self-insight and maintain that as a discipline we are still a quantum leap away from true person-centred awareness. I discuss how this misframing impacts both our personal fulfilment and our profession’s potential. A reinvigorated sense of mission and meaning must be summoned to hand the purifying fire of holy virtue back to OSH that misguided thinking robbed it of as the decades progressed. At the deepest level, the industry does not need to change. It just needs to become what it at heart always was.
I am seeking a total rout of wrong-headed notions, combined with a gentle infusion of enlightening perspectives, together forming a two-pronged strategy aimed at transformation of mindset. I assert conceptual fundamentals, then logically argue them to justify my suggested revisions. My focus is on general principles, but I do propose some actionable steps that can be applied to daily practice. However, this is not a manual of specific practical tips for concrete action, it is a reflective rumination to provoke consideration. I present a mythologisation of human systems management and, thereby, offer a psychological stickiness that could be deployed by departments to rivet in post-workshop durability and company-wide cultural sustainability. I make the audacious claim that our work in whirring industry can be a tool of spiritual self-actualisation, if we ardently decide that that is what we want it to be. To not just view our chosen path as ethically motivated, but to make it part of our raw moral identity. If you walk the corridors of the site where you grind your daily bread asking yourself why you feel like the metal man with no inner rhythm, I offer you pages vibrant with explanation.
This message is for those who have read dozens of pieces on the subject, and yet still feel as though they are drowning in a philosophical pit. Those who are ready to grab the stick that’s being proffered them. Even a shaman’s staff fashioned to drag sinking souls from existential mud. You’ve stood at the crossroads staring at the signpost and realised that each arm points to a different version of nowhere. You now spot one pointing straight up towards heavenly transcendence and wonder if it’s a joke.
The writing of this book was an act of obedience to an inner compulsion. I offer a talisman. A touchstone to bring sparkle to daily work life. A blessing on it.
The book was written by someone who wrestled with the system and, finding narrative by framing observations in larger containers of thinking, offers ideas to colleagues, whoever or wherever in the world they may be. It won’t be for everyone, but it is earnest and respectfully given. If your curiosity is squeaking, take a squeaky peek. The one thing you will give is your time — the most precious commodity you own — and so I thank you for each word you read. Amen.

Did you know asking for someone’s help is more likely to get them to trust you than offering it is? Or that inviting someone to explain why they think they are right is, eventually, the likeliest way to get them to realise they are wrong? Try it!
