Finding Out What Works and Doing More of it – Part 2

Presented by Annette Gray (Director, Annette Gray Consulting)

What’s covered? 

How can Safety leaders and professionals change the focus of their conversations and impact change fast?

Did you attend the myosh – “Finding what works and doing more of it” session in May this year? If you did attend, then this is the Part 2 session.

Covid, lockdowns and working from home has created many challenges and constraints on how we work and live. Change is hard and particularly adapting to change. Well, it does not have to be. If we want to help ourselves and the people we lead to change and adapt fast, then being solution-focused and helping steer people to what is working will have a greater impact.

This session will show you again in action what the difference is between being problem-focused as compared to solution-focused and how you can form better relationships with your peers, clients, team members and even family members if you stick with a solution focus approach, especially now in a time of great uncertainty. You will get to see it in action again!

The Power of Human-Centred Design

Presented by Kelvin Genn (Art of Work)

What’s covered? 

The first principle of safety differently is engaging people as a solution to harness, rather than a problem to control. Human-centred design is built upon this principle. For too long safety has focused on creating controls that constrain people rather than focusing on harnessing the knowledge of those that do the work.

Stanford University Design Center has crafted the ideas of user experience and human-centred design to solve intractable problems their source. This webinar will introduce you to the concepts of user experience and human-centred design and how to harness them for operational safety excellence.

The Value of Self Coaching

Presented by Debra Burlington

What’s covered? 

During this session, Debra will provide some insights into how to use self-coaching as a tool for building resilience and taking care of the self. Often in a world full of busyness, we forget to take care of ourselves. In fact, not only do we not take care of ourselves, but we also become our harshest critic, often focussing on what we haven’t done, should’ve done and discounting how amazing we truly are.

This session will provide some insights into the importance of self-coaching and some simple how-to tips for everyday implementation.

8 Safety Leadership Competencies

Presented by Thibault Vincent (Principal Consultant, Sentis)

What’s covered? 

Culture and leadership go hand in hand, especially when it comes to investing in safety. But the reality is that most safety leaders haven’t been taught the fundamental soft skills needed to lead effectively. And the implications for safety performance, compliance and reporting are concerning.

So, what does strong and effective safety leadership look like?

Join us to explore the eight fundamental competencies required for strong safety leadership and where to focus for the greatest return on investment.

What Happens to Workers When it’s Hot?

Presented by Matt Brearley (Managing Director, Thermal Hyperformance)

What’s covered?

It’s no surprise that heat-related illnesses spike during hot weather, but what about worker injuries? A growing body of evidence demonstrates that workers are more prone to injury during hot weather and this session provides a pragmatic overview of how this occurs and who’s at the greatest risk.

Driving a Positive Safety Culture

Presented by Anthony Gibbs (CEO, Sentis)

What’s covered?

Investment in safety culture is crucial. Even with the right equipment, experience and systems, if your people lack the motivation to take responsibility for their own safety, it’s not a question of if an incident will occur, but when. But in a landscape where 86% of organisational sites operate within a negative or unhelpful safety culture, how do businesses unlock the next stage of their safety culture journey?

In this webinar we explore:

• • Insights from a global research study of 21,711 participants across industry
  • The risks of a Public Compliance culture and their impacts on safety performance and discretionary efforts
  • The role of leadership in driving a culture beyond compliance
  • A practical roadmap for setting your next cultural transformation project up for success

Managing Fire Safety and Risk

Your Obligations as Asset Owners, Property/Facility Managers and Occupants

Presented by Greencap

Brad Paroz (Practice Manager – Property Risk)
Dr Chong Chee Goh (Principal Consultant – Property Risk)
Adam Davenport (Key Account Manager – TrimEVAC)

What’s covered?

Fires can have a devastating toll on businesses and communities, with far-reaching impacts. Major fire incidents in the last few years (such as Grenfell Tower, Campbellfield factory, West Footscray warehouse) have stimulated significant activity and development of fire safety, essential safety measures, and emergency management legislative frameworks across Australia.

Join us for this webinar where our Fire Safety, Essential Safety Measures and Workplace Emergency Management specialists will host a panel discussion on the current fire safety legislative environment and trends across Australia and some of the pitfalls and challenges to applying robust approaches to fire safety. The panel will also discuss emergency management plans and the practical measures that asset owners, managers and building occupants can implement to effectively protect themselves and their businesses from fire risk.

Finding What Works and Doing More of It!

How can safety professionals change the focus of their conversations and impact change fast?

Presented by Annette Gray (Director, Annette Gray Consulting)

What’s covered?

It’s a common pitfall to focus on problems rather than solutions when we have conversations at work with our peers, team members or clients and especially now in the uncertain times we live in. But what if you could be asking solution-focused questions that steer people to what is working and what they want rather than getting stuck in the “quagmire” of what is wrong?

This session shows you in action what the difference is between the two approaches and how you can form better relationships with your peers, clients, team members and even family members if you stick with a solution focus approach, especially now in a time of great uncertainty.

BErTHA – Four Pillars For Next-Gen WHS Management

resented by Jo Kitney (Managing Director, Kitney OHS)

What’s covered?

Traditional WHS/OHS manuals, procedures, forms, and excel spreadsheets are no match for the complexities of current-day business management. This has created demand for WHS/OHS management systems and practices that are simple, smart and integrated, to reduce silos, duplication, and bureaucracy. As we shift from the traditional approaches to health and safety, and look to declutter, improve human organisational performance, and focus on human-centric design, we need all aspects of the business to be ready and willing for the change.

This next generation of WHS management, and those working in health and safety, needs to be smart, efficient, and capable of meeting the pillars for modern and future management.

Kitney’s BErTHA model for next-gen WHS management provides a smart yet simple approach to understanding an organisation’s vision, goals, and outcomes, and using four pillars to enable WHS management, people and culture, innovation, and technology, and assurance and improvement. In this presentation, Jo Kitney provides the background to BErTHA, her origins, how the four pillars work together, and a case study of consultancy work with a client using BErTHA for a gap analysis, strategy, and improvement plan for managing health and safety at work.
