As a motivational safety speaker, I know all-too-well that there are the “official way of doing things,” and the corner-cutting. Before I became a safety keynote speaker, and before I worked in management on sales teams, I was a worker in heavy manufacturing companies. I worked in steel mills, leather tanneries, construction and transportation. My management was good at saying the right things and sending the right messages. However,...
