When it come to turnarounds in a refinery or chemical plant, success is created by merging many factors. Capable and qualified workforce, excellent quality program, outstanding safety culture, and knowledge and experienced workforce. You can have all of these perfect, and having poor leadership running the event(s) will compromise and degrade one or more of those positive factors. Positive Leadership is key. https://lnkd.in/gW4pKR3s

Speaking in a recent town hall with Kendra Mulatz, Stefanie Orihuela Castillo, and Kirsty Taylor on BHP's renewed values: - Do what's right, - Seek better ways, and - Make a difference. I feel particularly motivated by “the accountability to act, create value and have an impact.” This value makes it clear that we are not only required, but that we are accountable to act. It's clear that leadership are encouraging all of us to make the important decisions that arise as a normal part of our role, and that we should act with confidence to maintain inertia. When we do what’s right, seek better ways, and make a difference, we are a vital component of what makes BHP a global leader in mining as well as a great place to work.

Why do you work safe? What drives you to make a difference in the lives of those around you? For local leaders in EMEA, it's about personalizing their verification and validation through our Personal Safety Management System processes to have a real impact on those they support. I’m proud to see leaders like Pablo Moyano engaging with a maintenance crew not as a boss, but as a leader who cares about each person's "why." Let's follow their example and strive to make meaningful connections with those we work with so they return home to their “why” after each shift. Erik Estes EMEA Operations Manager

After about a month of catching up on family time (with Dino of course), I am starting the search for my next role. Shipping, Engineering, Wind Industry, Vessels, Business Development, Leadership and Regulatory Compliance will always be my passions. This is where I want to grow, develop, and effect change. I love a challenge and figuring out “the why”, in addition to working through process improvement to drive meaningful change. I believe leadership comes from all angles, no matter where you are in the chain of command. It is not only needed, but necessary, to have an environment where strong leaders are cultivated at all levels, through support and development considerations. I’d love to connect with fellow maritime industry peers, and pick your brains about the landscape, opportunities, and more! If you would like to connect, please reach out! Also, as Chapter President of WISTA Delaware Bay Chapter, I’ve been planning some exciting events! I’d love to hear event or networking ideas from WISTA members, and connect with other WISTA chapters, too! #offshorewind #maritime #jobsinwind #jobsinmaritime #shipping #leadership #compliance #engineering #shipswithstegosaurus

Something to ponder on as we welcome the new year - as a leader, do we show the highest commitment to safety and work to earn and maintain our people’s trust? Organizations need leaders and employees do the right thing regarding safety even when no one is watching them.  The top leadership of the organization sets the culture, including the level of commitment to safety and expectations around the priority that safety gets. Its people must feel sufficiently free and informed to challenge risky situations and logically think through on sequences of the behaviors and conditions they see around them. There are many researches in mining environments that demonstrate that the level of trust in the leadership closely influences safety outcomes.
