Have you listened to The Risk Factor yet?
Real conversations on safety, risk and leadership in high-risk industries. No neutral explainers and no fixed host. Every episode, one of our subject matter experts sits down with a guest to discuss the questions that don't usually get asked out loud.
Three episodes in, we've covered a lot of ground.
ποΈ Ex-detective and COMET's Head of Investigations, Alan Smith, on why companies keep seeing the same incidents, and what decades of police investigations have taught him about organisational failure.
ποΈ Craig Smith and Jim Grimmer on whether workplace mental health programmes are genuinely helping employees, or just good PR.
ποΈ Arrash Nekonam, Jaye Deighton and Steve Shearman on whether rapid AI adoption is driving real value, or quietly introducing new risks in high-stakes environments.
Catch up on all three now ποΈ https://www.cometanalysis.com/company/the-risk-factor-podcast
