WE CARE & the Total Safety System: Leadership in the Age of Complexity

By J. B. Feduccia Jr.

The natural environments in which we live, work, and play all contain risk. Under a critical lens, classical definitions of "safety" as a condition or environment that is "free from harm" paint safety as a totally objective, unrealistic, and imaginary construct. Safety is a complex, nebulous notion. In addition to its objective aspects, safety is also a feeling, and each person tends to evaluate safety on his or her unique, individual terms. In the absence of a clear, objective view of occupational and public safety, it is no wonder that today's safety challenges are often viewed as "wicked social problems"--problems which experts agree should be addressed through collaborative, constant intervention.
With clear language, the presentation of proven models and methods, and multiple appendixes and resources, this guidebook empowers readers and leaders to both question and embrace key social concepts centered around complexity, integrity, and uncertainty--all backed by the experience and insights of an author with more than forty years of experience at the leadership table. This guidebook also introduces Effective Fiduciary Leadership Theory and the WE CARE organizational adaptation systems.
