“Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you always should have been.”
– David Bowie
As our organizations mature, challenges become effective learning opportunities as long as complacency doesn’t set in. With experience, safety processes mature to become integrated within the organization, thus contributing to success. Safety pros guide the safety process to achieving what it should.
While businesses have processes and procedures to accomplish the tasks that assure results, its leadership in allowing a positive culture to thrive that drives success. Positive cultures are safe cultures not only set by a safe work environment, they are set by people feeling it’s safe to bring up the tough things, not just what’s going right. Actions that demonstrate respect, trust, and value for each person’s contribution creates and sustains a great culture both in good times and bad.
To succeed in business requires tenacity and diligence. Success depends upon understanding the market and delivering the wants and needs in a manner that engages and increases uptake.
In business, access barriers, process challenges, capacity and resources are constant when adapting to market wants and needs.
