Safety on the job isn't just about knowing the rules. It's about having the awareness to catch when something's wrong, and the courage to act on it.
In Part 2, Dr. Wayne Chappelle, team psychologist for the NBA's Oklahoma City Thunder, joins Dr. Kevin Rindal to dig into how stress shapes the way we think and make decisions under pressure, and why recognizing and managing it matters most when the stakes are high.
Then they get into one of the hardest parts of safety: speaking up. Why experienced workers get complacent, what to do when you see an unsafe call, and why "safety knows no rank," even when the person above you has more years. Plus what it really means to be a wingman, and how the best crews look out for each other.
