There are numerous competing forces, personalities, and agendas. Intuitively it should be simple. How could it be hard to convince people not to get injured or killed? The reality is that it requires a tremendous amount of leadership and skill to successfully navigate an organization and its employees toward safety excellence. The unskilled will advocate for more resources. The poor leader will blame others. The truly successful safety professionals understand the role of safety extends beyond the prevention of accidents. They use their leadership skill and influence to improve overall operational success. Many safety professionals have focused almost all their efforts on compliance monitoring and safety training.

A poor leader or communicator will not be able to bridge the gap between safety and operations. Symbiotic Safety will help safety professionals understand the symbiotic relationship between safety and operations and equip them to understand the leadership and communications skills required to blend them successfully.…
