How far away is death? The Best Safety Song

Improve your Company’s Safety Culture (An embodiment of “The Best Safety Song”)

“The Best Safety Song” reminded me about how everyone can improve their safety at work and cut down on accidents, risks, and loss of revenue. That’s taking a look at an incredible course coming up, “How to Stop Non-Conservative Decisions”

Workers are often blamed for making non-conservative decisions to get the work done, but we tend to look the other way when senior leaders encourage or make non-conservative decisions. This is unfortunate because our leaders set the tone for decisions made throughout the organization. Your management’s philosophy can protect your people, the environment, and your company’s reputation. This session will give you the tools to improve your company’s safety culture with the ability to empower conservative decision-making and spot non-conservative decision-making.

Alex Paradies will be presenting, “How to Stop Non-Conservative Decisions.”

When & Where?

This presentation is scheduled during Best Practice Session 6 at the 2023 Global TapRooT® Summit, Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe – Houston, Texas, April 26 – 28, 2023, (PreSummit Courses, April 24 – 25, 2023).
