Book Review: A young pro and his mentor address “Delivering Safety Excellence”

"Delivering Safety Excellence” gives safety and health professionals ideas, tools, confidence and courage to tackle whatever challenges confront them.
The author, Mike Williamsen, Ph.D, CSP, a former operations manager and authoritative safety turnaround expert, employs an entertaining, ongoing fictional narrative (based on factual events) involving a safety professional and his mentor confronting a safety culture turnaround necessity in the pro’s company.
Dr. Williamsen tackles excellence barriers including the injury plateau; the production push to “get ‘er done;” and the trap of complacency. The book describes numerous necessary basic culture truths and tools used throughout this realistic safety culture turnaround story. The book ends with a wiser safety pro, a culture of improving excellence, and the author’s call action: it’s time to move safety beyond its traditional, tired, low-performing reactive approach.
The combination of very readable, real-world safety storytelling and a set of specific, practical culture turnaround tools make “Delivering Safety Excellence” the best, most unique safety culture book I’ve read.
