We used to work on project together. Enjoyed reading your blog. Seems to be all of us know what we need to do which is why we are where we are in the 1st place. But often in our rush to "catch up" we forget what is expected of us... so why wouldn't people who report to us. Everyone needs reinforcement, most often, the positive variety. In modern parlance it is called mentoring isnt it? Hi Bill

Sounds like you had a great trip. Now you see why I enjoyed Bahrain, and Dubai when I went two years ago. Deer in the headlights. I know often many businesses find it hard to show a return on their investment when it comes to safety. But the fact is that almost every safety rule ever created, was created in someones blood. Someone either died or got hurt and the rule was created. So if you can influence good behaviors with positive reinforcements, that is a minimum investment with a maximum gain. Lets talk soon. Your Brother Jack Hey Brother.
