The ‘Making safety differently… work’ Workshop
In our previous session “Safety Differently Workshop“ with John Green we explored the changes that we need to make in what we do and how we do it as HS practitioners as well as the shifts in skills and competencies that are needed to make this paradigm change happen. This new program is a continuation of the previous workshop that will look at practical applications to implementing the safety differently model in your organization.
Safety differently focuses on engagement and empowerment of people while promoting innovation, productivity and resiliency. If you want to make this paradigm shift in your organization then bring an open mind and join John Green and the CSSE-LMC on October 17, 2019.
