The Dangerous Gap Between
Risk Perception and Reality
We All Have Blind Spots
Leaders often mistake "no news" for smooth operations, creating a false sense of security while risks quietly escalate.
Employee Silence
Employees hesitate to report risks due to fear of retaliation, dismissive leadership or damaged management relationships.
Ineffective Systems
Traditional reporting methods (e.g., surveys, hotlines) fail to capture nuanced feedback of open-field qualitative sharing.
Silence isn’t success - IT IS A RED FLAG
Employees detect risks early.
DO THESE WARNINGS REACH THE TOP?
Consider This True Story
A compliance officer oversaw two hospitals. At the first location, staff reported 11 issues at a quarterly meeting — A potential Stark Law issue here, coding error there, and multiple HIPAA near-misses. The board initially winced at the numbers. “Why so many problems?” they asked. The officer replied: “Because we’re catching them early. This is a healthy system working!”
At the second hospital, leadership celebrated when there were “zero new issues reported.” The officer pushed back: “This isn’t success—it’s a red flag! Mistakes always happen. Zero reports mean we do not have the chance proactively mitigate these hidden risks because we simply don't know about them - yet.”
Current Risk Discovery Methods
1 / Employee Surveys
Generally records employee sentiment at a moment in time
2 / Management Reporting
Intelligence is passed "upstream" and is filtered by the layers
3 / Open Door Policy
Direct reporting to management for comfortable employees
4 / Incident Reports
Formal documentation after problems have escalated
