“LEADING THE TRANSFORMATION”
Moving an Organization From Good to Excellence

This seminar is designed to assist managers and safety champions in meeting the ‘higher purpose’ safety challenge of progressive organizations: ”Move this business to “Best in Class in SAFETY!” As such, it is a primer on organizational change, and leadership actions necessary to guide an organization through the four-phase ‘transformation’ requisite to achieving ‘SAFETY EXCELLENCE’. Organizations typically change for but one of two reasons:

• They feel the HEAT! (They are Reactive – losses negatively impact results), or

• They see the LIGHT. (They are Proactive - recognize that good enough today isn’t good enough for tomorrow).

This program addresses ‘seven’ key questions critical to guiding management decisions and actions …these questions:

• What is Safety Excellence?

• Why is Safety Excellence important to business results?

• Why is leadership important to a safety excellence process?

• What ‘can/should’ senior managers do to support the effort?

• What leader characteristics are critical to influence staff behaviors?

• What should (and shouldn’t) be measured? and

• How will we gage success?

In answering these ‘questions of excellence’, participants engage in a ‘Safety CAT-Scan’ to facilitate exploration of these relevant issues:

• The critical differences between excellence and mediocrity.

• Loss Management 101—The financial impact of ‘average’.

• TEN defining ‘Attributes of Excellence’.

• The conventional ‘Wiz-dumbs’ that impede operational excellence.

•  The four-phase ‘Transformation’ process requisite to achieving safety excellence.

• The two laws (simple and complex) of effective performance management.

• The ‘hard-money’ bottom line contribution of safety.

• The ‘three’ levels at which safety must be addressed to achieve excellence.

• The Risk Management Continuum…the seven levels of managing risk.

• Measurement and management up-stream to headwater causation.

Bottom line—This seminar poses the critical question: “Must an organization be sick to get better?

Enlightened leaders know the answer to this ‘ultimate question’ of excellence.
