DEKRA’s Safety Leadership Development Approach
Equipping managers and supervisors with worldclass level skills to drive risk reduction is essential to achieving and sustaining safe operations and leading safety performance in industry.
When safety improvement occurs it does so through engagement of frontline leaders and teams. And when organizations engage their leadership teams, they gain dramatically better results. Why? Because when leaders participate in safety improvement, front-line safety behaviors connect purposely with the company’s vision.
Paramount to safety performance is the effective actions of supervisors and managers who are responsible for getting the work done. These leaders bridge strategy and performance by communicating the organization’s vision, getting the work done, and unifying the organization behind a common cause: safety.
DEKRA’s Safety Leadership Development process for managers and supervisors strengthens skill across critical safety activities and develops transformational safety leadership skills. This approach consolidates a risk reduction with strengthening a culture of sustained commitment and responsibility at every level of the organization with fewer injuries and incidents as evidence of a skilled team.
