COURSE DESCRIPTION: Numerous studies have shown that “when you change the supervisor, you change the results.” It’s true for all areas within a business, including safety. Effective leaders simply do things differently – they communicate better, they coach better, they inspire better, they model behavior better. But how do they do it, and can it be learned by others?
The answer is "yes". We asked Scott Geller, the nation’s leading authority on workplace safety, to put together a conference outlining the seven key habits that effective safety leaders practice daily to achieve an injury-free workplace. The rationale for the following seven habits will be discussed, as well as practical ways to reach this level of leadership.
At the end of this session, supervisors will be able to:
- Make safety personal and build trust
- Promote success seeking
- Focus on proactive process
- Set empowering goals
- Realize the power of behavior-based feedback
- Show empathy and facilitate self-accountability
- Promote actively caring and interdependency
