Episode notes
In this episode of Risk Management: Brick by Brick , host Jason Reichl sits down with Adrea Gibbs , Head of Content at Study Academy USA and a veteran of global operations at brands like Disney. Adrea challenges the traditional corporate view of training, reframing it from a line-item expense to a critical tool for risk awareness and brand survival. We explore the "Clown Bias" - the dangerous assumption that if you speak, your team is listening - and dive into the "Petri Dish" theory of workplace culture. From the construction of amusement parks to the front lines of guest interaction, Adrea explains how intentional, multilevel training reduces operational risk and protects your bottom line.
