Masterclass objectives

It is routine for most aviation organisations to lose up to 3.5% of turnover on costs associated with mistakes arising from human error. The mistakes, and therefore the costs, are all totally avoidable. Implementation of a Human Factors strategy has been mandated for aviation organisations by the worlds’ aviation legislatory bodies. However, the implementation of an EFFECTIVE Human Factors strategy can have a dramatic improvement on a company’s profits and performance. Interested? You should be! This informative and interactive workshop will give an understanding of what needs to be achieved, and what can be achieved, in order to ensure that your company complies with legislation and at the same time saves a significant, if not crucial amount of money. Practical exercises, case studies, video analysis combined with the principles of Human Error should leave you with a clear understanding of the way ahead for your organisation. This workshop is not a cost – it’s a saving!

About your leader

With over 28 years experience as a pilot in both Military and Commercial aviation George Duncan was well placed to start his own aviation training company in 1998. As founder and CEO of ‘The Human Factor Training and Development Ltd’, he and his team have established a company that has a world-wide reputation for excellence in aviation training. He has worked tirelessly over the last 10 years designing and delivering programmes aimed specifically at reducing Human Error in Aviation. The prime focus
of his efforts has been ‘Save Lives, Save Aircraft, Save Money’.

George has helped many aviation organisations to implement robust, effective Human Factors strategies, which have resulted in those respective companies making significant improvements in safety, and, as a result, huge savings in the often unseen costs associated with repair of systems and equipment. He has worked on the UK standing committee for Human Factors and is a UK CAA Crew Resource Management Instructor Examiner. He has been a keynote speaker at many international aviation events. Author of ‘The Skills of Leadership and Interpersonal Effectiveness’, he holds a Masters Degree in Human Factors in Aviation.
