“Making Professor Andrew Hopkins two most recent books, Failure to Learn and Disastrous Decisions available to all our employees at Spectra Energy as eBooks will help raise awareness about process safety management and build our positive process safety culture. Employees from CEO to frontline workers will learn how decisions they make, and actions they take every day, can have potentially catastrophic consequences. Most importantly, reading these books will help our employees understand how to avoid making the same mistakes as those that contributed to both the BP Texas City and the Macondo well explosions.”

“Professor Hopkins is an articulate and engaging speaker, who actively held the attention of audiences at all levels within our organization. We were delighted to secure the services of Prof. Hopkins for an on-site visit that included insightful presentations to our executive committee, senior manufacturing leadership, and two open lectures held at a major manufacturing site and our corporate headquarters facility.

We are actively using Prof. Hopkins’ materials, including ‘Lessons from Longford’ and ‘Failure to Learn’, as part of our organizational journey towards becoming a Highly Reliable Organization. We have found these materials to be exceptionally relevant and meaningful as a foundational part of our ongoing process safety educational efforts.”
