HSE Culture Change is not an event. It is a journey. In 2021, we started a journey with the Evonik team in Mapleton (Illinois, USA). Now it is time to mark another milestone! Five graduates of our Train-the-Trainer Program delivered their first Time-Out-workshops, using the signature InTense methodology. These in-house HSE Culture Ambassadors did an amazing job! New hires, 'old/young timers', and contractors were part of their audience and the feedback was great. What a way to inspire more people to take HSE Mindset & Behaviors to the next level. We congratulate the Evonik Mapleton Team on this achievement and look forward to creating more milestones. The journey continues. Thank you, Matt Simmons, Joe White, Alisha Jowers, Alex Smith, and Josh Cluck for being great HSE Culture Ambassadors! You rock! Thank you, Jeff LaBrozzi, Dioannys Figueroa, Scott Sedlacek, Matthew Simon, CSP, Kelly Lanz, and the Mapleton Team for believing in our partnership toward a safer, healthier culture. Thank you Danny van Lent van Vessem, Jim Elmer and Tom Moore for being amazing partners on this ride. Interested in our Train-the-Trainer Program? Don't hesitate to reach out.

Changing Culture is not an event. It's a journey. Last week, I was in Illinois, U.S.A. to work with an amazing team. Again... In 2021 we started this EHS Culture journey. The entire workforce, roughly 200 people, is involved. Because you can't change culture with only a few. The plan we built is merely a direction to follow. Seeing progress, understanding setbacks, speeding up or slowing down actions, saying goodbye to people, and welcoming newbies are all part of the journey. Are we still at the start of the journey? Are we halfway? Are we almost done? Who knows? One thing we do now: Caring for culture is never done. It is a work in progress. So... To be continued 😉 Jim Elmer and Tom Moore, Thank you for being awesome partners on this ride! #safetyculture #culturechange #safetybehavior #hseimprovement #hseleadership

Railings are important... Being alert even more...

Escape Rooms. My kids and I, love the excitement of a good Escape Room. The harder the challenges, the bigger the victory when we open the final door ‘back to freedom.’ A game leader, who tracks us on camera and a red button that can open the emergency exit, make us feel safe no matter how creepy or challenging an Escape Room is.   The purpose of an Escape Room is to get out. So is the purpose of an Emergency Exit.   Our globally based trainers visit many places to facilitate the InTense training sessions. It is their habit to check the emergency routes wherever they stay. More often than expected, they meet blocked or locked emergency exits.   Can you imagine? What if people can’t escape a fire? Because somebody thought it was a good idea to stack chairs at the emergency exit? And why? Is it a lack of awareness? Lack of knowledge? Lack of (safety) leadership? Lack of care?   Interested in how we can effectively make people feel, think, and act to make ‘ZERO HARM, ZERO DAMAGE’ the result of their embedded HSE habits?

Sometimes, being courageous or stupid can look the same from the outside. We need both to set ambitious goals and to do amazing things. From the moment we are born, we push our boundaries to discover what is and isn't possible. It makes us grow. However, there is a fine line between courage and stupidity. Taking risks without considering the potential consequences can lead to dangerous outcomes. Safety Awareness is essential for protecting oneself from harm and ensuring well-being. To inspire courageous behavior without encouraging stupidity is a delicate matter. Interested in how InTense promotes courageous behavior without jeopardizing Safety and Well-Being?
