About the book:
While your compliance efforts may have served you well compared to industry standards, your best efforts that yield only “acceptable” results is not nearly good enough. You are missing an essential, yet elusive component. Good leaders who lead good organizations adhere to both OSHA and industry standards. But that is just the foundation. They also own their moral responsibility to ensure safe outcomes, and likewise require all team members to be worthy partners in keeping themselves and the people they work beside safe. Building an ownership culture on the foundation of compliance is the essential component that drives outstanding safety results.
Thank you,
