Improve Employee Engagement Through Safety Leadership

December 15, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Employee engagement is an essential concept for today’s companies to be successful, as engaged employees feel linked to the organizational goals, vision and mission. As safety professionals wrestle with the concept of transforming safety cultures and improving safety environments, research significantly supports the ideal of transformational leadership within the safety profession. Transformational leaders continue to impact worker attitudes and outcomes in safety by exhibiting characteristics such as idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, inspirational motivation and individualized consideration. This presentation will discuss the impacts that safety-specific transformational leaders have on engagement levels within the organization. The focus will connect the four attributes of transformational leadership to those of worker engagement. As leaders begin to understand how these two constructs interconnect, safety professionals can begin to create more robust safety cultures within their organizations.

Key Takeaways:

  • Gain a better understanding of safety leadership.
  • Identify your leadership style and learn how it impacts the organization.
  • Understand the relationship between transformational leadership and engagement.
  • Implement this newfound knowledge into your daily activities.
