“Greatness is not a function of circumstance. Greatness, it turns
out, is largely a matter of conscious choice.”
• “Good to Great,” 2001. Jim Collins
Is “culture important?”
Columbia Shuttle Accident
• “In the boards view, NASA’s organizational culture and structure had as much to do with this accident as the external tank foam.”
• (Columbia Accident Investigation Board; Report Vol. 1, Chap. 7. August 2003)
Columbia Shuttle Accident
• NASA must be committed to:– A strong safety culture– A view that serious accidents can be prevented– A willingness to learn from mistakes & others– A realistic training program that empowers
employees
Leadership for Safety
Leadership is at its best when:
The vision is strategic;
The results are tangible;
The voice is persuasive.
(“The Leadership Moment” by M. Useem, 1998)
VISION FOR A SAFETY CULTURE
• Management is responsible, Everyone is accountable
• All incidents are preventable
• Training is critical
• Strive for continuous improvement
• Safety is good business
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS?
• Protection of our employees (OSHA triple bottom line)
• Compliance
• Cost savings (workers compensation, regulatory penalties)
ARE YOU PERSUASIVE?
• Discuss your expectations for safety performance
• Demonstrate good safety behaviors
• Audit your performance
• Review incident reports
• Have functional safety committees with employees at all levels.
People respect what management expects.
“There are going to be times when we can’t wait for
somebody. Now, you’re either on the bus or off the bus.”
(from the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe)
