Today's podcast is a two-part conversation hosted by NCG Coach and Director of Operations, Kathryn Freeman. In this episode, Kathryn sits down with Paul Cook, Vice President of Painters USA with locations throughout Chicago and Dallas, and Hernan Jimenez, Safety Manager at Nolan Painting, based just outside Philadelphia to discuss the critically important topic of safety. To begin the conversation, Paul share his WHY - how an integral moment forever changed his and his company's view on safety in the workplace, and the imperative need for leadership to take on this responsibility. Hernan then discusses his role as Safety Manager, his approach to teaching and training employees, and the necessity of a shared commitment to safety among management and the team. Nolan Consulting Group challenges the organizations we work with to develop and maintain a culture of safety. In addition to our Summit Safety Certification Program, this summer, we’ll be kicking off a Safety Peer Group! As you listen to this episode, think about safety’s place in your own organization and what you can learn from the experiences of others.
