In today’s episode of Transmit Safety, Aimee has an invaluable conversation with Leigh-Ann Stewart, a fellow CRSP. There is never an exact copy-and-paste career path in the Health & Safety world. As I’ve touched on in previous episodes (i.e. Episode 5), there’s a wide range of possibilities out there and you must decide which one works best for you. This episode is also packed full of important lessons Leigh-Ann and I learned along our careers that will help you become a better OHS practitioner, no matter your path. But, if yours has taken you to an administrative role within a company, you’ll certainly benefit from Leigh-Ann’s expertise. She climbed the corporate ladder to the C-suite level at the company she worked at for almost two decades and she is sharing all about her own path and what it took to get there. In this episode, you’ll learn: Leigh-Ann’s journey of climbing the corporate ladder and her recent transition into consultingHow to get involved in the decision-making conversations, even when you don’t have a seat at the table (yet)A 3-step program to integrate OHS strategies into your organization’s business approachWhy not every OHS practitioner is cut out to be a consultantDefine what success means to you and constantly touch back on itThe importance of cultivating a professional network The Transmit Safety Podcast is here to help health and safety practitioners achieve a holistic approach to workplace health and safety so they can become impactful leaders and put the value of safety into action.
