This 2-day workshop, developed by DNV's industry experts with firsthand experience in safety leadership, enables participants to acquire and practice the mental models and techniques that will foster psychological safety within their teams and help them to better understand their own impact on safety.

The focus on Day 1 is to develop a common understanding and get everyone speaking the same language about safety, how to talk to operators, how to read data and how to pick up on hidden issues. Is your workplace more focused on compliance or on commitment? Are your employees applying procedures as intended or are they finding a more "natural" route? Day 2 gets more personal as participants focus on their own impact on safety. Cultural considerations are examined before moving into action with a risk management model and activities leading to the definition of your own personal safety goal.


Key focus areas:

  • Compliance approach vs. Commitment approach
  • Work as Imagined vs. Work as Done
  • Picking up on weak signals
  • Systems, Standards, Compliance
  • Cultural considerations
  • Risk identification and assessment
  • Risk evaluation and control
  • Risk monitoring
