Description
www.KevBurns.com If you won't engage crew members on a human level, you will limit both yourself and your crews. On this episode, three places to start to switch your focus from process to people.

How do you as a supervisor or safety person begin to integrate the human factor? Here are the first three areas to set your sights. -- Kevin Burns is a management consultant, safety speaker and author of "PeopleWork: The Human Touch in Workplace Safety." He is an expert in how to engage people in safety and believes that the best place to work is always the safest place to work.
