Talking EHS, Episode 4: Lessons in Safety Leadership

Dec. 13, 2023
In this podcast, EHS Today editors offer a recap of Safety Leadership Conference 2023 and its theme of establishing a culture of safety excellence.

In this episode of the “Talking EHS” podcast, EHS Today Editor-in-Chief Dave Blanchard and Managing Editor Nicole Stempak recap some of the highlights of the recent Safety Leadership Conference, an annual gathering of supply chain professionals held this year in Orlando, Florida.

You’ll hear about some of the most inspiring – and compelling – sessions presented at the show, and learn some of the best practices companies are following to ensure their employees are fully engaged in establishing and maintaining a culture of safety. 

You’ll also learn about the facility tours that were conducted in the Orlando area, at Nautique Boats and Mitsubishi Power, and hear about some of the strategies those companies use to keep their workplaces safe.

And since the Safety Leadership Conference is an annual event, we’re actively seeking speakers and session topics for the 2024 SLC, which will be held August 26-28 in Denver, Colorado. Click here to submit a session idea.
