Responsible organizations cannot rely solely on their professional safety personnel to coach on and communicate safety and occupational health information. A company’s long-term safety success also depends on leaders and team members across the organization developing partnerships and having two-way safety-related coaching conversations; there is no better way to address vital workplace safety issues and expectations.
About the Safety Coaching Workshop
The Safety Coaching workshop gives leaders and team members the skills they need to initiate strong coaching relationships and engage in productive dialogue about safety concerns, discernible changes needed in safety performance on the job, safety performance improvement, and the recognition of positive safety efforts. This workshop utilizes either the Coaching TIPS²™ Model or the 8-Step Coaching Model, both of which are grounded in ongoing research and give participants a practical coaching process they can use for their other important safety initiatives.

The Safety Coaching workshop is designed to teach participants how to engage in essential coaching conversations about team and organizational expectations and protocols related to safety in the workplace. The tools, techniques, and resources explored give leaders and team members the skills and confidence to engage in productive dialogue about safety performance. This learning event will help participants develop practical coaching skills they can use as “Safety Coaches” to strengthen team-member accountability for following safety protocols, gain a renewed focus on optimizing the results of safety programs, and improve safety management and performance across the organization.
