In this compelling episode of The Safety Heroes Podcast, we sit down with Claus Rose, Managing Director of SafeSteps24, to explore how safety can become an instinctive part of our daily work routines. Claus shares his eye-opening insights on why traditional change management fails 70% of the time and how organizations can move from simply following compliance checklists to truly embedding safety into behavior. He draws powerful parallels with military training, emphasizing that just as soldiers rely on muscle memory in critical situations, workplaces should cultivate safety habits that become second nature.
Claus delves into the concept of “muscle memory” for safety—a transformational approach where safety isn’t something to be consciously enforced, but automatically executed. He discusses his journey from working on high-stakes IPO preparations to launching SafeSteps24, an innovative program that blends behavioral psychology, leadership development, and EHS strategies. His insights reveal how the right combination of personal change, practical tools, and data-driven feedback can create lasting improvements in safety culture.
Listeners will also gain a deeper understanding of how technology, particularly machine learning and AI, is reshaping safety practices by identifying risks before they materialize. Whether you’re a safety leader or an operational professional, Claus’s vision for transforming safety culture is both inspiring and actionable.
Tune in to learn how to drive change from the front line and build a culture where safety is not just a policy—but a way of life.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
