episode 291: Real Leaders Keep People Safe: Physically, mentally, and psychologically
Episode #291 // “The boundaries between our work and personal lives have shifted, and leaders need to deal with the fallout.”
When I began my corporate executive career, the only concern leaders had for safety was to ensure that people working in dangerous environments didn’t get seriously injured or killed.
Then, there were a lot of businesses that didn’t even need to think about the word “safety”, because they were predominantly white-collar, office-bound enterprises.
For most of my senior leadership career I worked in industrial businesses:
- Where people worked at dangerous heights, and in confined spaces;
- Where big machines moved with velocity; and
- Where, heat, energy, and dangerous gasses could combust with explosive force.
The world has moved on quite a bit since then. These days, what it means to keep people safe (and just how far your duty of care extends) has evolved dramatically. I’ve found that my grounding in the principles of physical safety leadership has been invaluable in meeting these evolving challenges.
These days, when we talk about safety, it’s normally couched as SHE (safety, health and the environment), and it covers everything from personal wellbeing, physical and mental health, and psychological safety, right through to ensuring a company leaves the smallest possible footprint on the communities in which it operates.
In this episode, I take a fly across the top of the safety domain, and talk about the role that you play as a leader in keeping your people safe — physically, mentally, and psychologically.
