Leadership is the single most important driver of organisational culture as it sets the cultural norms and expectations that define an organisation. The importance of measuring and monitoring safety leadership can not be underestimated as the organisations culture is ultimately determined by operational and management decisions and practices.
By better understanding the capabilities, or bench-strength, of leadership it provides organisations the abilities to optimise their people resulting in knowing who are the high-performing individuals and who need additional support. More importantly, organisations learn WHY someone is excelling in safety leadership and HOW to provide support to individuals who are not.
