This document summarizes a presentation on distracted driving. It discusses how distracted driving is a major cause of workplace injuries and fatalities. Research shows that distracted driving accounts for 10% of fatal crashes and 18% of injury crashes, with those ages 20-29 most often involved. The presentation provides information on the types of distractions, top distractions like cell phones and passengers, and the impacts of distracted driving on companies through legal exposures. It recommends measures for companies to eliminate distracted driving risks, including implementing strong policies, training, compliance monitoring, and using advanced technologies.
Building a high performing management team in a large medical device company requires intentional planning and execution. Conventional wisdom suggests that a strong team with a less than spectacular idea is more likely to be successful than the most innovative idea with a weak team.

For some time now we have been anticipating the introduction of the revised Highways Code of Practice. Well, that is now with us and time is ticking for the Code to be implemented by highway authorities by October 2018. That is naturally at the forefront of our minds.
To that extent we have tailored the day to provide a number of speakers to deliver practical and engaging perspectives on the changes to come. Confirmed speakers come from diverse backgrounds, to include, engineering, risk and insurance, legal and of course the local authority angle. We will consider the practical implications of implementing a risk based regime, through to the likely approach of the courts and the steps authorities can take to improve their ability to defend claims going forward.
Conduct Risk – What Corporates Can Learn From The Financial SectorEversheds Sutherland
Over the last few years the financial services industry has wrestled with the impact of poor conduct. Fines and penalties have soared, franchises have been damaged and the legal and regulatory burden has forced a complete rewriting of business models. As a result there has been a sharpened focus from both a regulatory and governance perspective on “conduct risk” – the pro-active management of anything in which an institution might engage which could impact on customer outcomes, or market integrity. We look into what corporates in other sectors can learn from financial institutions in terms of compliance, culture, governance and ”conduct risk”.

Understanding human decision making and biases: The foundation of an effectiv...Steve Remington
The objective of analytics and data science is to use data, analytical techniques, and explanatory and predictive models to support or automate human decision making. Given the key objective is to support and automate decision making, it is important for analytics and data science professionals to have a good understanding of the human decision-making process and the role data plays in that process.
This workshop gives an introduction to the latest research into how people in organisations make decisions. It also shows how human decision-making is often subject to biases that can lead to poor decision outcomes and how to overcome those biases. The workshop concludes with recommendations on how to best match analytics and data science activities with the level and type of decisions so the best decisions can be made, and how to ensure scarce analytics and data science resources are used effectively to support decision-making.

Introduction
The advantages of speed humps are clear. we need them in some neighborhoods to slow down traffic. If used correctly, they are intended to easily slow vehicles down and potentially cause fewer accidents. Despite this, there are many claims that they actually cause more accidents as well being damaging to vehicles and people and causing greater issues. One problem in the community is drivers speeding; therefore, city council should take a look at the issue and install speedbumps. The main counter argument to this proposal is Speedbumps will mess up vehicles suspension, but the proposed solution will be more effective because it will slow down traffic, protect our playing children, and build the neighborhood repour .Problem
The main cause of speeding in the neighborhood is people in a rush to get home as a result of extended traffic on freeways Once they make it to the neighborhood everyone wants to rush through the last minutes of travel. However impatience and lack of respect is a much larger source of the problem. According to the (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), "In the United States in 2017 speeding caused the death of 9,717 people." When drivers choose not to abide by speed laws, especially in residential areas, they put their own communities lives at risk. This includes children, pedestrians, bicyclists, other drivers, and pets Be the change you want to see by ensuring you abide by speed limits and encourage your family members to do the same. Residential neighborhoods should be family-friendly areas, which should also be free from life-threatening behaviors. Speeding drivers will make front yards dangerous places for children to play and no one should want to be responsible for that outcome.
Speeding is a preventable cause of accidents, the reason speed limits exist are to try to keep everyone on the road safe. A study conducted in Michigan by Richard Beaubien and published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers showed that placing stop signs along a roadway increased driver speeds, rather than decreasing them, Lowering the speed limit below typical roadway safety standards is also ineffective because most drivers travel at a speed they deem typical for the roadway conditions, rather than constantly checking their speedometer against speed limit signs. Based on this information it can be said that the normal ways we know to reduce the speeding on our neighborhoods are more likely not to work as we expect. Research and innovation are key to solving the problem permanently
Solution
I feel a great solution is to institute a neighborhood traffic calming program that emphasizes community involvement and combines education and enforcement with engineering techniques such as speed humps. Studies and enforcement data history indicate that most speeding on local roads is done by drivers who live in the same neighborhoods, so a commu ...

Cate Zovod, Near
When it comes to opening a new QSR location, the decision around site selection is critical — and the wrong decision can be extremely costly. For a QSR looking to significantly expand to new locations, the stakes are even higher. Founded in 1959, Little Caesars has been a popular pizza chain in the U.S. for decades. Having successfully responded to new consumer behavior in recent years, the chain is poised for rapid expansion across the U.S. and other growing markets like Canada and Mexico. With a goal to maximize ROI on the new locations, the company had to identify and prioritize sites for their new stores in a smart and scalable way. Learn how they turned to human movement data to empower teams in the U.S. and internationally to create a strategic expansion plan.

Resale is ecologically beneficial, applies to many types of merchandise and is on-trend, but we are finding that the resale of goods online isn't as profitable as in store--think photo shoot, double ship and repackaging of items. So if done right at store level, can resale be more profitable, increase foot traffic with unique offerings, and boost customer loyalty? Learn from IKEA about their in-store resale experience, hear exclusive research from WD Partners and see visual renderings that show how areas of resale can be executed in several types of merchandise categories.

You may know it as smart speaker, or the voice that tells jokes to your kids. You may think it’s a marketing channel, or only available through Big Tech.
Think again. A number of leading retailers know conversational artificial intelligence – voice assistance -- as a technology that is creating operational efficiencies (from warehouse to store), aiding employee retention, and lifting brand affinity. A technology that’s not only on the roadmap, but in implementation. (And in ways you may not expect.)
Join industry leader Vicki Cantrell and top executives from retail and entertainment as she pulls back the covers on the value of voice and retail, and explores the questions you’d ask: what’s real, what’s not, and what’s next? Where and how is this better than what we’re doing now? How do we protect the privacy of our customers – and our own data? How do we get started, and with whom?

Impact of Distracted Driving
Your Exposures (cont.)
• Negligent Entrustment: If the employer had reason to
know that the employee would likely be driving while
distracted, the company could be liable. If the employee
regularly made calls or texts while on the road, for
example, as a typical method of conducting business, and
then one of those times caused a crash, the company could
be found to be at fault.

Impact of Distracted Driving
Your Exposures (cont.)
• Dangerous Instrumentality: Similar to the previous
doctrine, this says basically that as long as the employee
caused an accident, the employer is to blame.
• Reputational Risk: Your company’s image is at risk when
involved in such a claim.
• Fines: FMCSA commercial drivers – employer fines $11,000
and driver fines $2,750.
