Keynote Speaker: David G. Lynn "Why Did I Do That? 10 Reasons We Take Chances: Risk Perception & Tolerance”
 
Does everyone perceive and tolerate risk at the same level? The dynamics of how we make decisions is complex and our ability to perceive danger is one of the first steps to prevent injuries. What is the right level of risk perception and better yet, how do you teach people to recognize hazards. If risk perception is the first step to preventing injuries, developing the appropriate level of risk tolerance can guide you to make the right decisions. This presentation opens a dialog for how to improve safety performance by understanding why people take chances.  The presentation also offers tools and techniques to influence safe decisions.
