Description

What is Rail Activism? My guest, Jon Worth, is a proponent of Cross Border Rail within Europe. On this episode, I’m exploring why Jon thinks this is important and how he’s getting his message across. As you’ll hear, Cross Border Rail is full of Human Risk In Action. I'm also fascinated by how Jon approaches his mission with passion, commitment, and a healthy dose of humour.On the episode, you’ll learn why I think this subject is so fascinating and how human decision-making by politicians and train operators is filled with Human Risk.

People are often described as the largest asset in most organisations. They are also the biggest single cause of risk. This podcast explores the topic of 'human risk', or "the risk of people doing things they shouldn't or not doing things they should", and examines how behavioural science can help us mitigate it. It also looks at 'human reward', or "how to get the most out of people". When we manage human risk, we often stifle human reward. Equally, when we unleash human reward, we often inadvertently increase human risk.
