Keynote Speakers
Bill Sims: What Makes a Leader Great
For years, safety leaders have been challenged with hitting the goal of ZERO injuries. Millions of dollars are spent in search of Zero Injuries, the “Holy Grail” of safety. Many of these efforts have proved beneficial, and yet many others must be questioned. Some of the finest safety cultures meet the goal of Zero Injuries, only to find that a tragic event shatters Zero, leaving it a hollow memory of what was, but no longer is. Why does this happen? Is Zero the right goal or is there a better one that will drive continuous safety improvement? Join Bill Sims to learn what lies Beyond Zero, and how this is the goal your culture must strive for to not only survive, but thrive in today’s competitive landscape.
Alison Betz, Ph.D., BCBA-D: Driver’s Behaving Badly: How Organizations Can Improve On-the-Road Safety for Drivers and Fleets
On-the-road safety is a priority for many organizations. At the end of the day, employees should arrive home safely and organizations need to avoid negative consequences, like nuclear verdicts, workman’s comp claims, and lost work time. Monitoring technologies show promise for improving driver behavior by capturing details about speed, acceleration, hard braking, and so forth. But the continued volume of injuries and associated costs suggest that monitoring technologies alone have not fixed common safety problems. In this presentation, you will learn how behavioral and environmental factors can influence driver behavior and how to determine which factors are most influential. We will also explore how to use all of the amazing data to our advantage through performance management systems and effective behavioral coaching.
Mike Pitcher: The Seven eLements of Leadership
Mike Pitcher has held C-level and leadership roles at companies such as Dell, Pitney Bowes, and LeasePlan USA. In his book, the Seven eLements of Leadership, Mike offers seven foundational pillars of leadership – Laugh, Learn, Listen, Language, Lagniappe, Legacy and Love – that can assist you in becoming a better leader TOMORROW! Mike’s program has been successfully implemented in various organizations, from start-ups to Fortune 50 global giants. He defines leadership as influence, and one does not need a formal title to become a leader. Leadership happens every single day in schools, churches, philanthropic organizations, as well as in businesses and government. And if you are curious, LAGNIAPPE is a cajun word for “doing a little something extra.” Great leaders do the little things that others don’t do, and yes, you have the potential to be a truly GREAT leader.
