When

9/14/23 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm CDT

Event Description

Safety leaders receive a myriad technical training for their roles, but two crucial components of leadership — how to make confident decisions and how to adapt to change — are often overlooked.

Join Eric McNulty, an expert on how to lead more effectively and with greater confidence during a crisis and change, and AlertMedia’s Peter Steinfeld for this masterclass on how to excel at safety leadership – no matter the situation.

You’re invited to submit your questions for Eric when you register, then join us to learn how to:

  • Lead more effectively at any stage of your career.
  • Avoid common mistakes and pitfalls in safety leadership.
  • Apply a simple leadership framework in any emergency scenario.
  • Use data to drive decisions, set goals and measure success.
