How My Dad went from Sub Surface to Safety Focused Human Factors Engineering | Episode 11 (Part 2)
Manage episode 412905891 series 2520369
Imagine a young man growing up in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, excelling on the baseball diamond, then trading his cleats for the uniform of a U.S. Navy submariner. This video interview and podcast episode, My Dad Kept Us Safe: A Nuclear Engineer's Journey, isn't just a conversation; it's a window into a life working in the nuclear power industry fueled by dedication, a thirst for knowledge, and a desire to make a positive impact.
The Problem:
How to transition from the U.S. Navy Submarine Service to the U.S. Nuclear Power industry
The Hope:
Navy skills and know-how will translate to the private sector
The Plan:
Begin transition planning while in the Navy and step into the private sector
The Solution:
Highlight the skills that transfer from the Navy to the private sector, share the reality, not the hype and fear-mongering about nuclear power, and discuss how human-centered engineering saved lives.
Thank you all for listening to this second, and more detailed, part of my conversation with my Father George Pannell. His passion for nuclear power and doing the right thing will stay with me forever.
Stay safe, consider the human factors, and Godspeed,
Kevin
