What happens when the world of safety gets disrupted? In this powerful solo episode, Sheldon Primus reflects on his recent conversation with Dr. Jay Allen, centered around Jay’s thought-provoking books: “Safety, In My Opinion” and the new release, “Safety Mutation.”
Sheldon unpacks his personal reactions to these works, and how the concept of “safety mutation” is forcing professionals to adapt or risk becoming obsolete. From confronting ego and legacy systems to embracing change in the face of tech, culture shifts, and leadership challenges, this episode is a raw and honest check-in for every EHS pro out there.
🔥 Whether you’ve read the books or not, this episode challenges you to ask:
“Am I evolving with the profession… or clinging to the past?”
