Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

To appreciate the dynamics of the culture change that Canadian National Railways (CN) was undertaking, it is important to understand the tools that are applied in the ongoing transformation. At the core of these tools is behavioral science or what CN calls the ABCs. The ABCs seek to explain the influences that cause people to take some actions and not others. An understanding of what drives people's behavior is absolutely critical for creating conditions for a successful organization. The ABC model shows the relationship of antecedents, behaviors, and consequences and hence the name. The model shows that antecedents trigger the behavior and the resulting consequences that one experiences influences whether he repeats that behavior. This applies to every single behavior, every day. The Continuous Learning Group (CLG) consulting team conducted training on the ABCs across the organization. The ABC model resonated with CN's leaders because it made sense in their personal lives. Then, when CN transitioned to work examples, everyone made the connection and understood how it worked.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
