INTRODUCING bas kniphorst Managing Direc tor CCH Austr alia & NEW ZEALAND

When you have to be right

We understand that our customers rely on CCH information to help them advise their clients, run their businesses and manage their obligations. We want to make sure we enhance the reliability and reputation of our clients through the accuracy and quality of our work.

When Bas Kniphorst started his first year at university in Durham, the United Kingdom, he had several questions about university life and no single source of information. He figured other students were in the same boat and set about writing his first book. “I spoke to the Master at college, got a team together and put all the information in one guide. It was simple things like `how much cutlery to bring to college?’ Information that new students would want to know,” he said. Nine international roles later, prior to arriving Down Under as Managing Director of CCH Australia and New Zealand, Bas is still doing what he loves and describes as, simply, “making books”. After studying a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Economics and then proceeding to a Masters in International Relations, Bas initially thought he may follow in his international banker father’s footsteps or work in International Diplomacy, but publishing was the path he chose.

INTRODUCING bas kniphorst

“I love books and wanted a career in publishing. It is tangible. Now with software and solutions you get to see an outcome even quicker,” he said.

Born in Brazil, Bas has worked with CCH parent company Wolters Kluwer for 12 years and moved to Australia and his current role in February 2013. He has also held management roles within the Wolters Kluwer global business in Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, the Netherlands and Singapore. The tangible and creative experience of producing books is still Bas’ passion, but he says the nature of information sharing has changed. It explains why CCH is making a significant investment in the development of Practice Management software. “How people use our products is very task-based. We have to help our customers serve their customers better,” he said. “We are providing the information more pro-actively to our customers because we understand they have to be more actionable. If we enable them to be more actionable they can, in turn, be more effective and efficient to their own clients.” “We feel the pain our customers have when they are required to have all the correct information on hand, and how clients can best use the information they have to serve their clients and still run a business,”

CCH has met the demand from accountants for a software solution by acquiring iFirm. The full practice management system is designed around managing jobs, workflow and resourcing. It also includes a contacts database and cloud-based report writer. One of the primary enablers for CCH customers is the ability to use various resources collaboratively. “Books, software tools and online capability have become essential business tools and we want to see all of these used collaboratively,” Bas said. “At the same time our products need to be accurate because we know our clients need to be right. “This year we introduced a commentary function into the e-book version of the Master Tax Guide, as well as providing resources for our clients to use the included tools collaboratively. We want our clients be able to migrate between books, ebooks, online tools and commentary with ease, while maintaining the very high quality all our products are so wellknown for.”

That information quality – a globally recognised combination of accuracy and relevance – is achieved at CCH using the expertise of a highly qualified team of writers and editors. Bas said it was this professional and hardworking editorial team that ensured there were quality controls for every piece of information communicated from CCH to its customer base. “We are always working in the spirit of our motto `When you have to be right’. “We pride ourselves on the fact that our editorial team provides well-researched, authentic and impartial information to all our customers. And remember, CCH produces more than just expert texts; we have an extensive and detailed online offering and, following some intensive research and development, we are currently producing a new total solutions-focussed product for accountants.” Given the regularity of legislative changes, CCH customers need up-to-date information at their fingertips, from a source they can trust.

“At CCH we understand the complexity of regulatory changes and the impact on our clients,” Bas said. “We work around the clock to make sure our customers have the latest and most up-to-date possible from an information from an authoritative source. That’s why our clients trust us.” Producing high quality books at CCH requires adherence to a strict and precise process. Industry and technical experts spend a lot of time researching and reading the legislation and information and understanding the details of the content. At each point the information is checked and edited. Time is spent looking at ways to improve the practical nature of presenting the information digitally and in print. A lot of work goes into making sure information is easy to access, practical and accurate. “We love what we do. CCH editors and writers are technical experts who are passionate about their field of expertise.” “When our customers want quality information from experts with qualified opinions, they

know they can turn to us. We want to reach our clients on a wide variety of platforms and we are researching how we can expand our offering to achieve that.” This statement typifies the future at CCH. Bas’ team understands the challenges faced by their customers and are striving to integrate the different resources needed into single-point products to help improve their business needs and the needs of their own customers. “We are focused on resource integration and evolving so we can enable our customers to be highly efficient to their own clients. Their reality is addressing their client’s needs and we want make sure you are well equipped to do this.” Talking about the direction of CCH comes easily to Bas thanks to his global business and cultural experiences. He has really enjoyed getting to understand Australian law, politics, culture and the education and medical systems. Bas thinks an impressive aspect of Australian culture is its support for multiculturalism.

“Not many countries have a service like SBS which caters for such a wide spectrum of cultures and language groups,” he said. “I still can’t believe that on a Saturday morning I can listen to a Dutch language station in the middle of Sydney. I am not sure the exact number of Dutch speaking people here, but I don’t imagine it is a large number.” Bas loves Sydney, particularly that he and his young family can live close to the city, but with a freedom and sense of security others around the globe only dream about. “My dad was a banker and we moved around a lot. When we lived in São Paulo we had to lock everything. There were gates to the house, hired security and even an internal gate to the bedrooms, which had to be locked at night.” “So it is a bit novel when I see my children’s bicycles at the front door every day – and then still there again the next morning. It is a good side of humanity.”

INTRODUCING Marcus Lai Senior Editor , Ta x & Accounting

After falling into the publishing industry and joining CCH as an XML Conversion Specialist Marcus knew the organisation was the right fit for him. “Within days of starting I knew CCH felt right – it was a very good fit. When my initial project ended I was approached by a colleague to apply for a position as an Editor working on books and product development in the academic space across the Legal and Tax portfolios. This role allowed me to leverage my background in law, continue working in a highly respected company and do something I enjoy”.

Although his positions and reporting lines have evolved over the years, Marcus is still passionate about his role as Senior Editor in the Tax and Accounting group. “I really enjoy working with my external authors. Over the years we have developed some great professional relationships and I genuinely look forward to publishing new editions so I have the opportunity to work with them again. “I enjoy the collaborative process and the idea that we’re committed to achieving a shared goal and creating something of value. I also like working within the Tax and Accounting group and having the opportunity to work closely with the academic sales team, marketing and other stakeholders involved in books publishing at CCH. We’re all working towards a common goal and being part of that is very rewarding.” One fond memory that stands out for Marcus during his time at CCH was the opportunity to work with former Australian High Court Justice Michael Kirby and his associate on the foreword for a new edition of Introducing the Law. Marcus also has fond memories of his time at an ATTA Conference held in Hobart. “The day had been very busy as I was finalising a publication remotely while attending the conference. By the evening I knew we had met our publishing deadline so I was in a great place to enjoy the social functions of the conference with the authors of the publication, our Editor-in-Chief and other colleagues.” Marcus nominates exciting and challenging as the two words that spring to mind when thinking about the transition from traditional print to digital content. “Exciting because it means an opportunity to innovate and develop powerful new online tools and systems for searching and delivering our content; challenging because it involves change and ensuring that the new products and online materials we take to market are successful and profitable.”

INTRODUCING Adriana Giometti P u b l i s h e r C C H AUSTRA l i a

When you have to be a Master

There is A KIND OF divine intervention when it comes to the production of the twice-yearly CCH Australian Master Tax Guide. The large TOME – considered an absolute essential for accountants ­– is printed on the same paper as the Bible.

Using Bible paper ensures all the accurate, relevant and important tax information required on the latest tax legislation fits into one, admittedly large, volume. The option of any other paper stock would result in two large volumes and therefore a cumbersome tax tool for CCH’s accounting clients. This is where CCH Book Publisher Adriana Giometti’s role is so important in researching the market and addressing customer requirements. “At CCH we engage unique and innovative market research initiatives. Their outcomes drive our product enhancements and commissioning strategy.” “We understand the demands placed on our clients. Charge out rates are under significant pressure while at the same time professional services marketing is essential. Today’s professionals are not simply accountants or lawyers, they are marketers, people managers and business analysts all at the same time. And there’s no budget relief for all these additional activities. We need to provide simple, accurate and to-the-point information so our clients can focus on other demands in their businesses.”

14

what’s under the cover? ADRIANA GIOMETTI “Employers expect graduates to hit the ground running. Feedback from our clients clearly shows that where a student has been exposed to a Master title before they enter the professional workplace, they are generally ahead of the game,” Adriana said. Adriana says these are the driving factors in providing CCH books and online products which are easy to work with. “The Master Tax Guide for example is such a wealth of information. We want to make it portable so people can carry it and use it more frequently which is why we provide it in print, ebook and online formats,’’ she said. The Master Tax Guide was the springboard for the Master series. There are 11 titles in the range and they cross all segments of CCH’s business. “By definition ‘to master’ means to acquire complete knowledge or skill in a particular area. So to be given the prestigious Master series title, a book must be able to provide that to our readers. A CCH Master book has not only depth and breadth of subject matter but also lots of practical worked examples. “Finding authors for a Master book is not always easy. They must be high profile experts in the field and it is often these people who have the least time to write. We have overcome this challenge by using several authors for each title and spreading the work load.” The series has always been very popular with professionals, but in recent years has seen it extensively adopted in tertiary courses and industry association courses.

“We serve clients in the tax, accounting, legal and business sectors. “ “Each product is written by experts, edited by professionals and checked through six different stages to ensure it is accurate, because we know our customers have to be right when dealing with their own clients.”

eBooks is a growing market and CCH clients are readily embracing them as a portable and functional tool. Adriana says clients are enthusiastic about traditional book and eBook packages. “We have noticed that clients still want to see the traditional version of a book, but also like the option of the ebook because it is portable and gives them the flexibility to access it wherever they MAY BE WORKING FROM.’’

CCH book products are essential for clients as legislation, business practices and training requirements are constantly changing. “My vision as publisher is to address the changing landscape of our clients. Lawyers and accountants are on the move and are becoming increasingly time poor. They want to use their time efficiently; our content must provide a solution quickly and readily, but at the same time provide the accuracy necessary to our customers’ professions.”

INTRODUCING Sue Rooker M cPhe r s o n ’s P r in t in g G r o u p

When you have to be green

CCH Australia is committed to the environmentally sustainable printing of its products, and McPherson’s Printing Group’s equal dedication to recycling and sustainable printing has been the foundation for a healthy and long-standing partnership.

18

“We are embarking on a project to monitor our electricity usage via a Time Interval Data Report. This will identify our usage patterns and provide information which can be used to reduce our environmental impact as well as costs.”

Historically CCH printed its own products. The migration from an in-house printing business unit to an outsource partner has transformed over the last 12 to 14 years. But there has been one major constant over this period – Sue Rooker. It is Sue who has seen the changes and developments in the print and technology space and overseen the CCH printing partnership. Sue’s long relationship with CCH started 16 years ago when she worked at the company, scheduling its printing operations. Two years later she began working for McPherson’s Printing Group (MPG) as the CCH-dedicated Account Manager. In the 14 years since, Sue’s role has morphed to now include marketing, but CCH remains one of her major clients. “As part of my current role I work at the CCH office a few times a week,” Sue said. “a lot of people THINK I am employed by CCH because I know a lot of people and the internal processes. It is a good relationship and one THAT has grown into a true partnership over the years.”

MPG started its planetconscious journey in 2008 when the business established an Environmental Task force to investigate and innovate options to recycle and reuse print waste, and find environmentally friendly suppliers. As part of this commitment, every paper stock used by MPG has some form of environmental certification or attribute. All the paper mills MPG is associated with are ISO 14001 (green

In keeping abreast of strategic developments within the CCH business, MPG pioneered `lightweight digital-on-demandprinting’ in Australia.

standard) approved. And MPG itself maintains certification to Environmental Management Systems ISO 14001. MPG and its suppliers go through a stringent procurement process to maintain the ISO 14001 standard. There’s a robust weekly monitoring process as well as monthly executive reports on paper consumption and waste within the business to ensure it is meeting its own high environmental expectations. “Reusing reels and paper off-cuts are just some of what we recycle,” Sue said. “We even have a team trying to recycle the dust that comes from the paper cutting process.’’ MPG’s commitment to a sustainable environment also includes recycling the water used during printing, while any overflow is used to flush toilets. Rubber blankets used on the printing presses are turned into shoe soles. Ink and toner cartridges are recycled into raw materials for re-use through the Planet Ark Resource Recovery Program. Plastics in wraps,

straps, drums and milk cartons are reused as tables, chairs and storage crates. In addition, the inks used by MPG don’t contain any carcinogenic substances or heavy metals. “The byproducts and any ink waste is collected and removed by an environmentally-friendly company. In some of our manufacturing processes we even use non-toxic vegetable ink,” Sue said. “There are a lot of detractors who believe tree clipping is bad, but using wood from the right sources for printing books is not a negative thing. Trees can be reforested and books can be recycled. This is why we have standards for our paper suppliers.” MPG Compliance Manager Bill Drummond said the Environmental Task force was charged with focusing on four key areas. “These are landfill, gas, prescribed waste and electricity, with a main focus on the electricity,” he said.

“In the past publishers would print a large number of copies of a product and store them in warehouses until they were required,” Sue said.

“Now we use a much more economical and environmentally-friendly method. We print on demand. The model has changed to print less, more often.” MPG is part of the OPUS Group a Business Services & Communications Company which delivers published content globally. Located in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore and with alliances in the United Kingdom and America, its global footprint offers a new world of opportunity. “We can send a digital version to our regional manufacturing plants or one of our alliances and have it printed closer to the end user,” Sue said. “In the past if we needed to distribute an order in any of these regions we would have to print them here and transport the products overseas.” “It is far more economical and a time saving for the client, and certainly better from an environmental point of view.”

INTRODUCING Emma Watson Regional Director , Str ategy, Innovation & Technology

When you have to be now

The omnipresence of technology in everyday daily life is the impetus for the recent huge leaps in CCH’s software solutions and technological advancements.

“At CCH, we don’t just offer a single software solution, we offer integrated solutions that provide the ability for our customers to collaborate with their clients,” the company’s Strategy, Innovation and Technology Director Emma Watson says. An accountant who has worked in practice, had commercial roles in media organisations and a legal firm before joining CCH 12 years ago, Emma understands first-hand the significant demands placed on accountants and lawyers, both in practice and within commercial companies. “At CCH we know our customers are advising their clients and stakeholders and they need to be right. We enable our customers to do that with confidence,” she said. “When our customers use a CCH software solution it works as they work, they are able to add value for the client and, on top of that, are able to access the software or information

“Accountants opt for iFirm because you can get all you need to get the job done in one suite,” Emma said. “They can do the practical bread and butter tasks such as account preparation and tax returns using the software. If they want to look up a tax rate, or use a checklist to ensure a distribution complies with Div 7a, they can do it in iFirm too. “By using this efficient, integrated solution, an accountant can free up time to provide proactive business advice to their clients.”

in any media they choose and while they are on the go.” The role of accountants and lawyers have become more demanding in the digital age. Clients expect 24/7 service. New technology allows CCH to provide solutions that enable these professionals to be proactive advisers and have the right answers in easy reach. CCH’s iFirm - a cloud-based accounting suite that provides everything an accountant needs to run their practice, gives accountants flexibility to work wherever they are, and the opportunity to do everything from planning a job,doing a tax return, through to calculating CGT on the sale of a clients investments all from within a single software solution – is among those cutting-edge technology solutions now on the market. “Using modern software solutions, the accountant and their client see everything in real time, without the need to download information on a memory stick at year end.”

Despite being relatively new in the Australian market, more than 1500 CCH clients are already using iFirm – and that number is growing rapidly.

There are plans for additional features and modules to be added into iFirm including enhanced functionality in the client accounting module, improved tax returns and practical guidance from CCH content right at the point when they are doing a task. CCH Integrator is another software solution making a serious impression on many of Australia’s corporate reporting and compliance professionals, including 9 out of 10 of Australia’s leading financial institutions. “This is a Cloud-based central software platform for ‘whole of finance’ departments in medium to large organisations,” Emma said. “We have plans to expand this suite to provide solutions to manage reporting requirements from the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) and Australian Securities and Investment Corporation (ASIC) and various State Revenue Offices. The solution for APRA reporting by superannuation funds is released and having great success.’’ There are plans to release a new interface to access CCH content in the very near future. The new product is in the latter stages of development. “This will be a new solution designed specifically for smaller accounting firms. It is a new alternative to IntelliConnect to ensure accountants don’t have to hunt for answers to questions. From the landing page they will be directed to the best answers for their common questions. “CCH as an organisation uses agile development methodologies. We adopt a user-focused approach to design and product development which is all about understanding our customers workflow and tasks.”

CCH has taken another step to bringing information closer to clients with A new APP called CCH Mobile.

Launched in May this year, the APP allows users to have personalised features on the home screen and can be used on any mobile device. “The real benefit of the APP for our busy clients is that it is totally personalised and allows for truly seamless workflow. They can log in on their mobile phone, find what they are looking for on the spot. When they are back in the office later in the day they can pick up exactly where they left off from their PC or laptop using the main IntelliConnect website,” Emma said. “A client can search all of their CCH content through CCH mobile and even get news feeds by tracking relevant news through the same downloadable APP. The APP – which has been downloaded more than 1000 times since launch – can be accessed through iTunes or Google APPs. Further enhancements are in the development phase for release in 2014. CCH is also releasing another mobile APP in the coming months. The Capital Gains Tax Reporter (CGTR) APP, available to customers of CCH Capital Gains Tax Software, provides another option to access the database of stock prices, all corporate distributions and actions on every publicly-listed company and trust in Australia back to 1985. “The CGTR mobile APP will soon provide on the spot access to the software as well as providing the popular look up functionality of the current APP.” Emma said. “This is a tool that can be used on the fly, but at the same time enabling our clients to get it right.’’

INTRODUCING Jessica Hobson Director, Marketing & Product Management

Lauren Ma M a r k e t i n g M a n ag e r CCH Aus t r a l i a B o o k s

When you have to be mobile

“Today’s accountant runs a dynamic and mobile business. They could be meeting at a client’s office, sitting in a coffee shop PREPARING for A meeting, or COMPREHENDING A RECENT TAX ruling at home. It’s essential they have access to publications like the Master Tax Guide NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE TO readily answer questions. CCH eBooks offers this option,” says CCH Books Marketing Manager L auren Ma .

26

There is a cultural shift towards portability of research information. Technological advancements have allowed publishers to take their content into more dynamic and shared environments like social media and Cloud based solutions. “eBooks were a natural progression for our business, transitioning our print content into more interactive and userfriendly environments. Since the launch of our eBooks more than 18 months ago we have seen a significant increase IN their usage,” Lauren said.

“The eBook model we use is very adaptable. In the professional market once a digital copy is purchased it can be used by the same user on each of their devices through their Adobe license. This again addresses our customer’s demands for flexibility and portability, always having answers at their fingertips.” the go. This can be in a cafe, on the train, in the office, park or at court,’’ Jessica said. “An accountant or lawyer can find an answer at their point of personal need. At the same time they can dip in and out of a traditional book. It is a great sharing of different media.’’

While the demand for eBooks is growing, traditional books are still popular with CCH clients and an essential part of their workflow.

CCH eBooks are device agnostic, a great advantage in a world where the technology available is as diverse as the range of titles.

“We are noticing that more people are opting for print and eBook packages. This gives them the flexibility to have the traditional book user experience they are familiar with and the convenient portability of the electronic version when they are on the go or with a client,’’ Lauren said.

“We recognise that our customers want options. Most already own their preferred device – a tablet, laptop, iPad or smart phone. Our eBooks can be purchased from the CCH online store, iTunes and many other online retailers so our customers are not restricted to just one device or purchasing option.

Customers can access eBooks through the CCH online store which also offers subscription services, resource centres, news feeds and blogs by CCH industry experts.

“CCH Australia is also working with a number of bookshop partners to develop alternative eBook delivery methods.

CCH Australia Marketing & Product Management Director Jessica Hobson said the portability of eBooks is also greatly valued by lawyers and barristers. Where previously they would have to lug several heavy volumes to court now they can just take an iPad with a library of pre-loaded eBooks with them. “We understand our customers are mobile and want flexibility in their workflow and we are addressing this need to be able to read the latest legislative and business changes while on

“eBooks are a nice fit with blended learning materials and online books produced for our academic clientele,” Jessica added. “In the education space it’s all about accessibility and affordability. Students have embraced digital resources. eBook and print bundles offer students the best of print and online material at affordable prices, supporting all their learning requirements. Our academic team are working with our customers to determine which packages and solutions work best for individual course requirements.”

Additional features of CCH eBooks include the option to annotate and bookmark, search and find content easily, and highlight passages of copy and add notes. They provide all the flexibility of a traditional book, but the superior functionality of eBooks further enhances the user experience. “CCH is also looking to add value and depth TO THE eBook portfolio in the future by digitalising titles on our backlist. This would allow our customers with large libraries to reduce their physical libr ary footprint and staff to access their full print collection online,” Lauren added.

While some clients had already embraced the digital book and resource offerings, Jessica said CCH understood there were customers who needed assistance. “We have a great technical team to help customers. The team talks with a client over the phone and steps them through each stage of downloading an eBook – this only takes a minute or two,” she said. “I always encourage clients who are a bit unsure of how to get started with eBooks to call the team because the first step towards taking advantage of this amazing technology is usually the hardest. From that point it really just gets easier and more exciting.”

INTRODUCING Fiona Harmsworth S e n i o r Ed i to r , L aw & B us i n e ss

Fiona started her professional career as a human resources practitioner in a professional services firm. Although she enjoyed the work and every day Presented a new challenge, Fiona wasn’t fond of the “fire fighting” And cumbersome administrative aspects of the profession. After returning to Australia she moved into publishing. It was the perfect sideways transition that allowed her to continue working in HR while addressing an information resources gap in the Market. “HR practitioners are often time poor, and I came away from a couple of MY previous roles with ideas about how I could assist other HR professionals using information tools and materials that could potentially save them time so they could focus on more pressing matters,” Fiona said.

Publishing book material has become a real passion for Fiona who enjoys the creative process. “When you take a raw manuscript through to publication, it goes through a number of changes, whether to content or structure. Being a part of that process is rewarding. I like the idea that there is something physical being produced at the end of the processes. I can show the book to someone and say, ‘I worked on this’. That comes with a great sense of achievement. And even though books are now being published in electronic formats, like eBooks, it is still a product people can read, search and trust.” Fiona has worked on plenty of interesting titles over the years. She nominates Development and Planning Law in New South Wales as a standout not only for its size (1500-plus pages), but because it came with the opportunity to work with author and solicitor John Whitehouse. “John was my Environmental Law and Policy lecturer at Macquarie University when I was studying my Master of Environmental Planning degree. He was such an interesting and amusing author to work with in a subject area undergoing significant reform. Plus, he is a bit of a traveller so I got some travel tips as well.” Fiona believes there will always be a place for the printed word, but agrees digital content is enabling people to do more in less time. “From my own experience, anything that saves time, helps you do your job and comply with the relevant legislation, while also allowing you time to inject a bit of your own expertise and knowledge can only be positive.”

INTRODUCING Andrew Hopkins CCH Author

When you have to be inspired

I am often asked what led me to write the books I have written. I was deeply affected by a 1979 coal mine explosion south of Sydney in which 14 men died. I’m not sure why I WAS SO MOVED, since I knew no one concerned. Beyond sadness, there was also a feeling of outrage that there were no prosecutions even though this event could be traced to legal violations. I wrote an article entitled ‘Crime without Punishment: The Appin Mine Disaster’ which marked the beginning of my interest in Occupational Health and safety generally, and disasters in particular.

4400

My first disaster book was about another coal mine explosion, which killed 11 men at Moura, Queensland, in 1994. The rich materials made public in the official inquiry allowed me to provide an organisational analysis of this accident and to view it as an organisational failure, not just as a case of corporate crime. The organisational perspective proved to be invaluable, and I have used it ever since. When the Esso gas plant accident happened at Longford in 1998, union officer Yossi Berger could see that the organisational causes of this accident were strikingly similar to those I had described at Moura. He involved me in the subsequent Royal Commission which ultimately led to the book, Lessons from Longford, which was widely read around the world. One thing led to another and I found myself involved in investigations into two very high profile accidents in the oil and gas industry in the USA, each culminating in a book analysing the organisational failures involved.

There is, as someone once remarked, “an awful sameness” about these accidents, but I trust that is not true of the books. While the fundamental causes of the accidents are very similar, each inquiry uncovered fascinating new information which enabled me to extend my analysis. The books therefore complement each other; each builds on the one before. I could never have written them otherwise.

What inspires me to write? I write because I have something to say about these accidents that no one else is saying. When I sat down to write the book on the Gulf of Mexico oil well blowout of 2010, at least a dozen other authors had already beaten me to it. But not one of their books dealt with the organisational causes of the accident. My book filled a gap - one I am still baffled by. What I am doing is applied sociology, but it seems that few other sociologists are interested in applying themselves in this way. What keeps me going? I enjoy what I do. I am fascinated by the way organisations work and the way they fail and I get great satisfaction thinking and writing about these things. A reviewer said about my Moura book that it had the “right balance of quiet outrage and scholarly thoroughness”. As an academic, I cannot imagine a greater complement.

Andrew Hopkins Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the Australian National University in Canberra

He has been involved in various government OHS reviews and has done consultancy work for major companies in the resources sector, as well as for Defence. He speaks regularly to audiences around the world about the causes of major accidents. He was a consultant to the US Chemical Safety Board in its investigation of the Texas City accident. His book on that accident, Failure to Learn: the BP Texas City Refinery Disaster, was published in 2008. He was again a consultant to the Board for its investigation of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster and has written a book on that subject - Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout (CCH, 2012) He was the winner of the 2008 European Process Safety Centre safety award. He has a BSc and an MA from the Australian National University, a PhD from the University of Connecticut and is a Fellow of the Safety Institute of Australia.

Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout Andrew Hopkins This book takes the reader into the realm
of human and organisational factors that contributed to the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010. This event resulted in the loss of 11 lives in the explosions and fire, the sinking of the rig and untold damage to the environment and to the livelihood of Gulf residents. It is important to know what people did, but even more important to know why they did it, so this book attempts to “get inside the heads”
of decision-makers and understand how they themselves understood the situations they were in. It also seeks to discover what it was in their organisational environment that encouraged them to think and act as they did.
