While this is not surprising - leadership is leadership, right? - it also means research has been running into the same issues as general leadership research. Because what is a good leader, or what makes a good leader? Scholars have looked at 'great men' and successful men. They have studied traits of important leaders, their attitudes, ethics, morality. As hard as these things are to study, they are equally hard to communicate, or to train. So what about leadership behaviours? What do leaders in safety in practice do? In this book you will find answers to these questions. It basically boils down to: safety leaders LEAD. What this means or entails, you will read in this book. The writers will lead you through LEAD with examples, exercises and theory. Leading has never been simpler. - Frank Guldenmund, Delft, Netherlands Author InformationTristan Casey is a Lecturer at Griffith University’s Safety Science Innovation Lab.
