“Risks that you control are much less a source of outrage than risks that are out of your control.”
From a safety standpoint, outrage comes from many directions: we hear it as “we’ve always done it this way” and “why change now.”
“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience in trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.”
Resilience comes from part planning and part flexibility: it’s thinking outside the box that leads to reduced risk and success.
“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”
Decisions made in our businesses today are affected by a developed outlook that leads to success, or unwanted opportunities from which to learn.
“After all, it really is all of humanity that is under threat during a pandemic.”
Humans are true resources that are flexible and adapt to see us through, and it’s these assets safety professionals know how and seek to protect.
“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”
Our organizations are a collection of people moving the same direction. Safety Professionals can add certainty as we all share in this unprecedented time.
