Leadership Reflections... Safety & Quality Reset from Jake

In my below video, I share reflections from our Safety & Quality reset and recent LDC activity. Within 3 weeks, our LDC has hosted 8 training events with ~400 people, as well as additional partner events.

One event was our Safety & Quality Reset, which covered content based on analysis of 12 – 18 months of data, specifically focused on root causes of events and those who were injured. From the analysis we developed safety and quality focuses for the Fall outage season. Each of these focuses are enabled by the STA card and our pre-task briefing process.

We handed out a book at the LDC, Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. Chapter 4, Keystone Habits & The Ballad of Paul O’Neill, includes the framework which we adopted to make safety our keystone. If we get safety right, everything else will fall into place.

Key reflections:

-        Our relationship to standards – Humility.

-        Desire to improve and be the best – Excellence!

-        Desire to be together – as a TEAM!

With two weeks remaining before Labor Day, please embrace the S&Q focus and take some time to be with family and friends. Then we will be prepared for a successful Fall and strong finish to 2023.
