Workers get the blunt of pretty much all the pre-job briefing discussions, training, responsibility, and accountabilty.  Workers do all the pre-job work - all the time.

But here is a question:  When is the last time a manager had to do a pre-job brief?  Would they be good at briefs like this?  Would these even work for the work they do?

It is NOT that we are ascribing pre-job briefs for managers (may not be a bad idea), but more that Marc Yeston talks about how managers should THINK about their responability for making pre-job briefs successful in thier organizations.   It is a good thing for us to think about.

Thanks for being a part of the PreAccident Podcast.  You make the show go.   Keep listening and tell your friends.   See in in the airport.
