Process Safety Mentoring

While process safety training is valuable, it is often limited to a short-term gain which might not be sustained in the longer term. Coaching and mentorship are ideal supplements to training, particularly for leaders or key individuals, where support can be highly focussed on a specific issue, in a one-to-one setting and where our consultants can be used as a sounding board to allow for optioneering and problem solving. 

The flexible nature of coaching and mentorship leads to a more sustainable approach to personal development and performance improvement. Examples of problem states that could benefit from coaching and mentoring include:  

• Have you identified the need to improve the organisation’s process safety culture and performance however do not know where to start? 
• You are confident that occupational safety is well managed however are uncertain about process safety management.
• You recognise that there is a lack of alignment between business and process safety performance metrics. 
• You requires additional investment to support process safety improvements and are required to develop a business case for this. 
• Site leadership are inundated with actions and require support on risk-based decision making and cost benefit analysis to aid prioritisation. 
• You have an abundance of 3rd party specialist documentation but lack the competence to confidently explain the outputs. 

These are just a range of challenges that industry faces which could benefit from focussed process safety support through mentorship.
