A COLLABORATIVE FORUM FOR SAFETY LEADERS WHO DRIVE OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
The Safety in Action Leadership Executive Roundtable brings together a select group of senior executives — VP-level and above — responsible for advancing safety performance, reducing serious risk, and strengthening operational resilience across their organizations.
This exclusive, one-day forum is designed for candid executive dialogue, peer benchmarking, and practical problem-solving. Held under Chatham House Rules, the roundtable creates a psychologically safe environment where leaders can openly discuss the risks, pressures, and strategic decisions shaping the future of safety performance.
This year’s conversation will focus on the risks leaders cannot always see on the dashboard: weak signals, blended workforces, evolving SIF prevention strategies, and the difficult questions executives must be willing to ask before the next serious event.
