Breakout Session 2:
Ben Zitek and Jared Northup, Humanex | Maximizing Your Workplace Culture — How Leaders Influence Change
In this interactive breakout session, you will learn how leaders can proactively influence positive change in workplace culture.
Joe Newhouse and John Crawmer, Pinnacol | Normalization of Deviance
Sometimes risky behavior doesn’t feel so risky once it becomes a habit. Vital safety protocols such as wearing PPE, tying off, using an assistance device to lift or avoiding the phone while behind the wheel get lost among demanding job outcomes. Over time, these practices become patterns and dangerous behavior becomes the norm. Risk managers call this behavior the “normalization of deviance,” and when it happens in the workplace, it can have catastrophic consequences. In this advanced-level course, you’ll be introduced to this safety concept, and you’ll learn to identify and mitigate the risky habits and shortcuts that might be infiltrating your company’s operations. This will help bridge the gaps between recognition, risk control, and implementation in the workplace.
Seth Denson, GDP Advisors | Taking Control–Managing the Healthcare Supply Chain
The US healthcare system continues to become more complex while options within the traditional marketplace continue to worsen. To combat this, employers must take a more business-like approach to managing expenditures or be destined to stay in the vicous cycle they find themselves in today.
In Taking Control, we will reveal strategies to identify cost drivers, quantify them, and prioritize solutions to them. These proven strategies offer employers the ability to manage their own specific “supply chain” all the while curbing year over year volatility and improving the bottom line.
