Abstract
Evoking positive changes in safety culture or accentuating its positive characteristics has been a long-lasting challenge in safety-critical organizations. While a variety of methods exist to facilitate this process, an understanding of the main factors to take into consideration when leading methodical change in safety culture is often limited. In this paper, the authors describe twelve principles that attempt to summarize the essential good practices of safety culture change. Examples of failed safety culture change initiatives are then analyzed from the perspective of these principles to provide a tentative proof-of-concept of their usefulness. We propose that safety (culture) practitioners can utilize these principles as a reference when leading methodical change in safety culture.
