Chapter 5 Blog 2
The Second concept I chose to examine was high reliability organizations. This concept is in the socialization portion of the chapter. High reliability organizations are professions, which are very dangerous and important. One simple mistake can lead to complete chaos. These types of professions require highly skilled and confident individuals. It is supported in the text that these people are usually extremely socialized individuals. This is just one more aspect of socialization and its importance. In these circumstances, high reliability organizations do not have room for mistakes. It can be the difference between life and death. I can identify with this concept through a family friend. He is an air traffic controller. When he discusses his job with us he expresses the importance of clear and confident communication. He needs to be able to communicate in many different environments and remain calm and collected at all times. In my opinion, a highly socialized person is more adaptable in these situations and can react in a professional under control manner.
