The PROTECT The House Program

A New Perspective on Risk and Leadership for Every Employee

What if risk wasn’t a problem to manage—but a superpower to unlock?

The PROTECT The House Program is your organisation’s first step on the Risk Rebel Leadership Pathway—a bold and practical starting point toward building a people-powered approach to both risk and leadership. One that strengthens alignment, trust, and performance across every level.

This isn’t just another compliance or regulatory program. It’s far from it.
It’s a mindset-shifting experience—an awakening in perspective. One that reframes risk as something deeply human, and fundamentally strategic. Through a clear, practical approach, participants learn to cut through complexity, move beyond box-ticking, and confidently engage with risk as a powerful leadership capability.

Rooted in Unearth’s proven PROTECT Framework, this program helps leaders and teams rethink their role in protecting the house—safeguarding what matters most: people, performance, purpose, and the future of the organisation.

Whether you’re an entry-level employee, manager, executive, or board member, this program gives you the tools to think differently, lead more effectively, and contribute proactively to a safer, stronger workplace.

Why this matters

What if risk wasn’t a problem to manage—but a superpower to unlock?

What you’ll gain from the PROTECT The House Program

This is not a theoretical deep-dive—it’s a practical, inclusive, and empowering experience that reshapes how people engage with risk, leadership, and alignment at every level of your organisation.

An improved mindset—Learn to view risk not as a threat—but as a strategic advantage and leadership edge.
Introduction to the PROTECT Framework—Discover a simple, powerful, and people-centred method to make risk real, manageable, and meaningful.
Insight through S4R (System for Risk)—Understand how risk emerges—through people, pressures, systems, and environments—and how to reduce or prevent harm before it occurs.
Psychological safety and Safe Zones—Create environments where people feel safe to speak up, take initiative, and work together to solve problems.
Real alignment—Break down silos and build cohesion across roles, departments, and decision layers—so people pull in the same direction with shared purpose.
Beyond box-ticking—Replace passive compliance with meaningful engagement—connecting the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of risk to real, measurable outcomes.
Leadership that reflects your purpose—Align leadership, systems, and culture to protect what matters most—and support confident, consistent performance at every level.

What to Expect

Over the course of the program, you will:

Participate in interactive discussions and exercises—Challenge your assumptions, explore new perspectives, and shift how you perceive and handle risk.
Gain practical tools for real-world change—Equip yourself with approaches that strengthen culture, elevate leadership, and support proactive risk management.
Learn through common language—No jargon. No unnecessary complexity. Just clear, relatable concepts that land—regardless of background or experience.
Redefine your relationship with risk—Discover that risk isn’t something to fear—it’s something to understand, harness, and use to lead with confidence.

How This Program is Delivered

This program is delivered live by Lisa Sisson—creator of the PROTECT Framework, founder of Unearth, best-selling author of Risk Starts and Ends with People, and widely known as the Risk Rebel.

Lisa has also served as a guest lecturer at Griffith University, where she designed and taught the Risk Analysis and Management course for future leaders across engineering, project management, and executive pathways.

The concepts in this program are grounded in real-world experience and drawn directly from Lisa’s book, making this a rare opportunity to learn from the source—with practical, actionable insights that go beyond theory.

Your Pathway, Your Choice

Participants can choose from three transformative formats:

Join an Intimate Group Session – Learn alongside other professionals, engage in powerful discussions, and expand your perspective through shared experiences.
In-House Delivery for Your Team – Have Lisa run the program—either in person or virtually—for your organisation. This format creates space for internal conversations and company-specific challenges, all within a safe, structured environment.
One-on-One Sessions – For those seeking focused time and personalised guidance, Lisa offers private sessions tailored to your unique leadership goals and context.

Who Should Join?

This program is designed for every level of your organisation:
- All employees, regardless of role or experience—because risk awareness starts with everyone.
- Managers and leaders ready to uplift their team’s risk mindset, collaboration, and decision-making.
- Executives and board members looking to integrate people-centred risk into strategic leadership.
- Anyone who wants to think differently about risk—and help shape a safer, more aligned, and successful organisation.

Why This Program is Different

This isn’t just another risk or compliance training. It’s a mindset shift—an invitation to lead and think differently.

Not a tick-box exercise—it’s a transformational shift in how people relate to risk.
Not in competition with your current systems—it enhances and elevates what’s already there.
The PROTECT Framework is agnostic—it works with any process or approach, filling gaps and reducing blind spots.
It simplifies the complex—so everyone can play their part with confidence.
It’s engaging, relevant, and practical—for employees at every level.
It aligns language and understanding—so risk becomes a shared responsibility across the whole organisation.

And most importantly…

Step 1 is the foundation—your entry point into a deeper journey.
For those ready, who then wish to lead with greater courage, clarity, and confidence, Step 2: Risk Rebel Results is where they begin earning their stripes.
It’s not just about risk—it’s about who you really want to be as a leader… authentically.

Why PROTECT The House is Different

It’s not a tick-box exercise—it’s a transformational shift in mindset and approach.
It doesn’t compete with your existing systems— it elevates and complements them.
The PROTECT Framework is system-agnostic—it integrates with what’s already in place, bridging gaps and unlocking potential.
It simplifies risk management—so everyone can contribute with improved clarity and confidence.
It’s engaging and people-centred—not dry, not jargon-laden, not compliance theatre.
It creates a shared language of risk—aligning mindsets across frontline teams, leadership, and the boardroom.
It’s about leadership as much as it is about risk—enabling your people to lead, act, and decide with intention.
And Step 1 is the Foundation—the starting point for leaders who want to think and lead differently.
It also creates the pathway for those ready to go further, into Step 2: Risk Rebel Results — where leaders take a significant next step forward, deepening their understanding, expanding their leadership capacity, and beginning to apply risk as a strategic enabler in real-world challenges.
