LEARNING to See – A New Perspective on Risk Utilizing Visual Literacy

June 6, 2018 @ 8:30 am - 11:30 am

Your workers might be missing 90% of the picture, and you might be too.

Every day, we are bombarded with so much information that our senses – our vision in particular – exist in a state of constant overload.  Being able to identify, interpret, and act upon visual information – a skillset known in the art and communication world as visual literacy – is more crucial than ever in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.  Although conceived from a different context, the application of visual literacy has the potential to drive success across multiple layers of business.  From the shop floor to the boardroom, to hazard awareness and pre-job analysis, to risk decision-making, the strategic value of becoming more visually literate may help organizations achieve the next step-change improvement in performance.

Key takeaways –

  • Increasing your Awareness of Bias
    • Once you see something, it is hard to remember what is was like not to see it.
    • Sometimes, you cannot see what is in front of you, even if you know it is there.
    • You are always filling in the blanks based on what you expect to be there.
  • Real applications where LEARNING to See can help to keep people safe
    • Hazard awareness
    • Incident investigation
    • Pre-job risk assessment
