Senior Management - What they say and what they do

Kate Bowers is a researcher and Human Factors Specialist with the National Energy Board (NEB) and she joins me in this podcast to discuss some interesting research she did on "Senior Management Safety Leadership Behavior."

What is the importance of senior management in shaping the organizational culture around safety? What is safety climate and how have some of the tools we use in the industry been misapplied? What key behaviours do leaders need to exhibit around safety to their workforce and where does the system sometimes break?

Kate gives us a lot of food for thought. I share some learning experiences and we enjoy some great learning for just over 60 minutes. It's a long one so sit back, relax and enjoy.

This podcast is dedicated to Lawrence Smith and Don Ross (Lead Investigator on the Lac Megantic accident) - two safety professionals who left us too soon. RIP.
