Enhancing Human and Organisational Performance through Aviation-Inspired Training
Transform your organisation with 30West, where unparalleled human factors expertise from aviation drives enhanced performance and safety across diverse sectors. Harness our proven strategies to empower your teams, streamline processes, and elevate your organisational success to new heights.
Imagine this for a moment….
It’s the middle of the night, 35,000 feet above the Atlantic Ocean, a passenger is critically ill and it’s your call what happens next.
Handling unexpected challenges is demanding, particularly at ‘30 degrees West’, a line of longitude in the remote mid-Atlantic. Pilots must remain composed, making decisions that affect everyone on board. We know, because we teach them.
Business leaders face similar pressures when navigating unforeseen crises. The ability to make swift, impactful decisions is essential for the safety and success of their teams. Both roles require a calm, focused approach under pressure, highlighting the necessity of clear communication and robust risk management strategies to address emerging challenges.
Our philosophy embodies the 30West mindset. Founded and led by airline pilots, we specialise in equipping you with the tools to enhance situational awareness, refine real-time decision making, and foster effective communication in high-stress scenarios - all essential elements in building high-performance teams.
Your team may already be top performers, but we’re in the business of continuous improvement - perhaps you are too?

Compliance Auditing Expertise

On health and safety, desktop audits facilitate the evaluation of an organisation's adherence to relevant legal requirements and best practices. This includes reviewing policies, risk assessments, incident reports, and training records. These audits highlight compliance gaps, enabling organisations to implement necessary corrective actions proactively.

By analysing risk registers, mitigation plans, and incident management processes, auditors can identify weaknesses or areas requiring enhancement. The output of these audits provides organisations with the insights needed to refine their risk mitigation strategies and ensure alignment with organisational objectives.

Desktop audits are systematic reviews conducted primarily through document examination, phone interviews, and remote assessments. These audits are vital for organisations striving to ensure compliance with health and safety regulations, risk management protocols, and applicable legislation.

Legislative compliance is crucial for maintaining operational integrity and avoiding potential legal repercussions. We examine compliance with specific laws and regulations relevant to your organisation's sector. This involves analysing documentation, including licenses, health and safety policies, and annual compliance reports. The findings help organisations substantiate their compliance status and prioritise areas for improvement.
