HOP for Senior Leaders Course

This course introduces senior leaders to the principles and mindset of Human and Organisational Performance (HOP). It focuses on how leadership can influence safety culture, system design, and operational learning by moving beyond compliance and fostering meaningful engagement. 

The course is tailored for senior leaders, executives, board members, and decision-makers who influence strategic direction, resource allocation, or organisational culture. It’s ideal for anyone who leads or governs high-risk operations. 

 Participants explore safety paradigms, the five HOP principles, and the role of leadership in shaping system capacity and learning. Key themes include psychological safety, organisational resilience, shifting from blame to accountability, and practical ways to support better conversations and better systems. 

The course can be delivered as a half-day or full-day session, depending on your team’s availability and goals. It is delivered in-house, either face-to-face or virtually, and can accommodate up to 12 participants. 

Leaders will gain new perspectives on error, accountability, and system design. The course encourages self-reflection, challenges legacy safety thinking, and provides practical tools to lead in ways that improve performance, trust, and learning across the organisation.
