BEST PRACTICES TO DEVELOP AN EFFECTIVE SAFETY PROGRAM


DEFINE NEEDS The first step is to identify any specific gaps in leadership roles. For instance, if current executives are retiring, a comprehensive plan is essential to transfer the attributes and characteristics. Companies should develop short-term and long-term strategic goals to align with existing values. The priority lies in identifying the right leader for crucial roles and training them.

FOCUS ON DEVELOPMENT Leaders should be nurtured and developed instead of trained. An effective development program involves job rotation, project planning, mentoring and shadowing. As always, organizations can seek the help of reputed providers to train their in-house teams with expertlycrafted development programs. Collaborations with senior executives are essential for special projects.

IDENTIFY TALENTS Companies should always identify potential leaders within their teams. A common mistake to avoid is focusing on top-performing employees. But, workers demonstrating excellent performance may not evolve into good leaders. One tip is having an open mind to invite promising employees by engaging in other programs.

MONITOR AND MEASURE Before implementing a development strategy in place, organizations need to follow a measurement option in place. They should identify the number of participants and increase employee engagement for current jobs. Organizations must also monitor the performance of programs and identify potentials for improvements.

RETENTION One should always focus on retaining employees with long-term strategies. Most importantly, businesses should focus on not losing valuable members. Especially, promising employees need to feel satisfied and engaged with their work. Helping them with their proceedings is essential to have a positive impact on retention.
