From Enforcer to Ally: How to Personally & Positively Impact your Safety Culture
Justin Ganschow, Caterpillar Safety Services
There is a spectrum of how safety is managed within organizations, from authoritarian to democratic, and all leaders play a role in shaping that culture. Whether we wear the title of 'safety' or not, how we interact with others in situations regarding establishing safety expectations, performing audits or assessments of work practices, or responding after an incident forms perceptions about our character. It starts with understanding the biological reflexes of reacting to stressful or challenging safety situations and then adopting cerebral, intellectual habits that are more effective solutions. This workshop will share how to overcome a 'safety cop' persona, balancing leadership with collaboration to help participants become trusted safety advisors and create a more engaged safety culture.
