Knock It Off DVD - 16 Minutes

After the incredible success of "Leading Indicators, It's the Little Things", Jeff "Odie" Espenship of Target Leadership is back to discuss the concept of calling a "Knock It Off!" whenever recognizing an unsafe situation. Knock it off is a phrase used by military fighter pilots to stop the work, listen, then reassess the situation.

Odie's friend and fellow fighter pilot Wes "Dahmer" Sharp focuses on a second concept in the program: "Keep off the grass". Keeping off the grass is a metaphor for when you see a safety violation, you say something no matter how silly or trivial a rule is to you.
