Equip managers and supervisors with safety leadership workshops designed to strengthen your culture and profitability for total company improvement. Now offered through an elevated live, online learning experience, our series of workshops are designed to develop and engage leaders through an experiential learning environment and equip them to lead behavioral and cultural change.
This series of workshops – combined with individual coaching (optional) – is designed to develop and engage your organization’s leaders through an experiential learning environment and equip them to lead behavioral and cultural change. Proper and ongoing safety leadership training is critical for creating a culture of safety and reducing incidents.
Overview:
Through interactive sessions with consulting safety professionals, participants will gain an understanding in: the framework for safety management, regulatory requirements, available resources, supervisory soft skills, industry-specific risks, roles and responsibilities, and developing an action plan. For an organization to develop a world-class culture, supervisors must be trained and skilled in effective safety leadership. This starts with a ground-level understanding of safety and risk management processes. This safety leadership certificate program is designed as an introduction to the principles and practices of effective safety management for those new to a safety-related role or operations professional.
Course Objective:
To equip operational leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to identify hazards and develop solutions to reduce risk. Participants will also walk away with basic knowledge of OSHA regulations and requirements.
Workshop Specifics:
Overview:
Simply put, leadership sets the foundation to achieve a winning culture. Leaders, in all capacities, have the ability to help others succeed both personally and professionally. However, those leaders must first understand their role and develop the knowledge and skills necessary to lead cultural change. This workshop sets the foundation for all safety leaders to recognize what a great safety culture looks like and understand their part in achieving this goal.
Course Objective:
To introduce supervisor, manager, department head, or any other staff employee to roles and expectations as safety leaders. This compliance training provides an opportunity for all safety leaders to recognize what a great safety culture looks like and understand their part in achieving “great.”
Workshop Specifics:
Overview:
A High-Impact Observation is any conversation with an employee(s) initiated by a supervisor or manager in which exposure is observed, feedback is provided, and a two-way conversation is held to strengthen the use of best practices and understanding of exposures. Observations provide an opportunity to build stronger relationships between supervisors and employees, but require the supervisor to engage and inform, not simply instruct.
Course Objective:
To develop a supervisor’s ability to recognize safe behaviors and communicate insights to employees in a way that reinforces engagement and builds relationships.
Workshop Specifics:
Overview:
Area inspections may be standard procedures for supervisors, but how can inspections be leveraged to increase effectiveness? Science has taught us that by learning to analyze hazards as they interact with behaviors, safety leaders can turn routine inspections into opportunities for employee engagement. An emphasis during work zone safety training on hazard identification and risk reduction changes the approach and process, which then changes the output and leads to leverage for future impact.
Course Objective:
Leaders will learn how to leverage skills in Action Orientation as they apply to Physical Hazard Identification and exposure reduction.
Workshop Specifics:
Overview:
A Job Safety Briefing is a series of interactions that focus on the specific safety topics, requirements, instructions, and exposures associated with a work task. By building on knowledge and experience gained in High-Impact Observations, safety leaders will develop skills to move from two-way coaching to leading a larger group. Utilizing a genuine approach, leaders can engage everyone in a conversation around safety as it relates to a specific task or subject.
Course Objective:
To develop the supervisors’ ability to lead effective Job Safety Briefings that engage everyone involved.
Workshop Specifics:
Overview:
When an incident occurs, all employees watch to see how their leader responds. How a leader interacts with the affected employees and communicates to the team creates an atmosphere that impacts culture. When bad things happen, your credibility is on the line. All supervisors may have an obligation to investigate the incident, but maximizing the investigation can be an opportunity for positive change and to prevent recurrences.
Course Objective:
Learn how to apply credibility skills to respond appropriately to incidents and conduct effective root cause analyses.
