Wind of Change blowing through Safety TrainingThere is a new player in the field of Safety Coaching and Leadership for the Oil and Gas Sector and that’s Anne Harper, Director of CPD (Complete Performance Development). Talking with Anne, you are immediately aware of her passion and knowledge of the subject, and her deeply held belief in the difference which her training can make is inspirational. Anne, and her team of highly experienced trainers and coaches, deliver a range of courses in Safety Coaching Skills. The most intensive of these is a five-day course for managers, leaders and safety specialists wishing to experience and develop coaching within their organisations. This programme provides the essential skills, tools and behaviours to communicate more effectively, improve performance and create a safer working environment. The approach is participative and experiential and could well be very different from other safety courses on the market. Anne firmly believes that properly facilitated training should be focused on the interactions between the group themselves and their facilitator, and not at a screen at the front of the room. For those seeking the credibility factor CPD is an Approved Centre with the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) . In addition to the five day programme , CPD offers an ILM endorsed two-day Introduction to Coaching course for supervisors providing them with the skills, techniques and confidence to carry out effective coaching interventions. Anne and her colleagues in CPD are all professionally qualified in their chosen fields – they have all worked in coaching, training development and delivery for many years and have a wealth of experience to draw on. Their key focus is on the oil and gas industry. Recent feedback from clients include comments such as: “I believe I now have the confidence to interact with people and know that I have the tools to help and support them in reaching their aims / objectives. With the aid of coaching my colleagues and I can continue to develop a positive health and safety culture on our individual assets and within the organisation as a whole” HSSEQ Specialist “This 5 day programme will help me in so many ways, some I probably don’t realise yet!. It will help me get the best from my team, improve safety, performance and help be become a better manager and person”OIM. Dr E Scott Geller (author of more than 300 research articles and over 40 books or chapters addressing the development and evaluation of behavior-change interventions) says “I’m convinced the dramatic success companies experience with behavioural safety is essentially due to an increase in the quality and quantity of interpersonal conversation about safety.” Anne completely agrees with him.
