Leadership in Health and Safety

I didn’t think a “virtual” corporate meeting could be so involving, I found the idea of ​​creating rooms for 2 people at the beginning of the conference to, how to say, break the ice and how it happened to me personally, find myself talking to Francesco on which experience I have never had in life and I would have liked to. I have been in the company for 25 years but it does not often happen to find myself talking to a colleague about personal things, so thanks for the experience.

I think the intervention of the Director of the LHS Foundation was very interesting, I was struck by that passage he told of the hand on his shoulder by the Firefighter who changed him inside and led him to be what he is … the passion in what he does was transmitted and it has come to me all, I found his intervention very interesting.

Now I wanted to spend two words on the concept of involving our people. Back to the example of the hand on the shoulder, sometimes we forget to do it too with our collaborators and our managers, sometimes a synthetic, heartfelt and sincere “thank you” can give you much more than infinite and empty words.

I very much appreciated the high level of interaction from the first moments of the session that made it interesting by leveraging curiosity and human relationships (even if at a distance).

Never boring or obvious, all the videos and in particular Davide’s story, much humanity, much appreciated.

In short, if it has been said that: “there is no change without involvement” I can certainly say that the involvement was total.

In short, I would say a blockbuster, Bravi!

It was a very useful, engaging and stimulating experience. And in a very very particular moment for all of us, it was also exciting to be able to hear and review (even if on video) several colleagues after many days, to feel we’re a “team”.

I bring home the awareness that, as we have unfortunately had the opportunity to prove, one must never feel immune from visible and usual risks. You can and must learn from every situation in order to have, in the future and on other occasions similar to the one we are experiencing, the necessary awareness and the appropriate approach to manage threats. That leadership is important above all if it sets an example, if you “believe” in what you do or ask your team to do. No “cost” is more important or more sustainable than the human (or environmental) value that a group, company or community has at its disposal and with which (or in which) it must face the challenges of everyday life .

Really an initiative that I hope will have a following.

It was a very pleasant, alternative and engaging experience.

I feel like saying this, “borrowing” a concept expressed in the privacy legislation: experience has contributed to strengthening the awareness that safety must be considered today “by design” and “by default” in the structuring and reorganisation of business processes, in all possible directions. Thanks for having done it your way.

The topic of safety is so important and central in our life, not just at work, that talking about it is never enough.

Then in this period it is even more so given the situation with which we have to live.

Surely you have been able to create a context of interaction with web tools and despite the physical distance, you have maintained a good level of attention and interaction from the whole team.

The lesson I bring home is that we definitely have to work to create a “culture of safety” in all contexts of our life, work, family, society… Because safety means first of all respect for life, people, the environment and ultimately giving the right value to all human activities.

This result is obtained only by making everyone understand that safety is a value (as well as a right) for which we must always talk about it, finding effective communication means.

In this perspective, the leader takes on a central role not only as a vehicle of messages, but above all as a model and example of concrete application of virtuous behaviour to be followed.

To strive each of us must become a “leader in safety”

The session was a good sharing opportunity from which interesting ideas for reflection emerged on an absolutely current topic; personal reflection that continued even after the end of the session and will continue in the coming days / months, given the importance and uniqueness of the moment we are experiencing, which will lead us (and it must be so) to change our behaviours in multiple areas, at work or not.

First of all I would like to thank you all for the wonderful morning spent together. I understood, along the way, the work you must have done to organise it in a way that you yourself have explored and implemented, I imagine, in the last few weeks. And, let me tell you, with great success considering the format you have set up.

You are the factual demonstration that from a crisis, incredible opportunities can arise, having the skills and talent.

Certainly the platform, which thanks to you I discovered, enables “n” possibilities, but your ability to use it, to let us interact with each other, the questions you asked in the rooms, more personal than professional, are the distinctive element of your format. Well done. I was happy to interact and compare myself with colleagues I know well (I have been here for 13 years), but with whom (not all of them at least) I can no longer interact daily.

What will I bring with me?

I appreciated your ability, and that of Scotti, to interact immediately with the participants by triggering a sparkle in the initial story of the accident: that hand of the fireman put on Scotti’s shoulder, will remain for a long time a strong evocative image that will make us reflect.
