About the workshop

Safety leaders play a key role in strengthening the capacity of an organisation to perform in spite of challenges and risks in their environment. Overall success in the role can be traced back to effective leadership, a strategic mindset and a focus on engaging executive leaders and staff in the cultural change necessary to achieve the aspiration of zero harm.

To step up as a true safety leader, you need to effectively engage with the business across all levels as you develop your team and foster a culture of safety leadership in your organisation. Credibility, influence and the ability to position yourself as a trusted leader within the business and across the supply chain is key to success.

This workshop will equip you with a suite of practical skills and provides the opportunity to reflect upon your role as a leader, learn from each other’s experiences and provide a new vision for how you lead Workplace Health and Safety functions. The program will draw on the latest research in leadership and neuroscience to create an evidence-based framework for improving your impact and influence as a safety Leader.
