ATTENDEE INFORMATION

Tuesday, April 16, 8:15-9:15AM
Keynote Speaker: Wylie Davidson, Motivational Speaker, Legacy Safety Solutions
“Leaving A Safety Legacy”

Leaving a Safety Legacy is a refreshing look at two of the hardest challenges many companies face today: Compliance and Engagement. This presentation addresses these issues by uncovering the personal value in safety both on the job and at home and delivers a clear path for attendees to follow. By challenging the status quo and the “what’s in it for me” mentality, this message is designed to get attendees to develop a stronger value on their own personal safety as well as the safety of others while gaining essential insight on how to give back, ultimately creating their own safety legacy. In this presentation our keynote speaker utilizes both his training as well as real-world experiences that he has gained, to share with the audience the perfect mix of high energy, humor, and insight that attendees enjoy and take away from. Wylie’s presentation style and thought-provoking anecdotes connect with the audience on a personal level and gets them all laughing and learning. Attendees walk away with a clear understanding of how their safe actions impact themselves, as well as others, and make a personal connection to the reasons why it’s important to be safe. One of the best takeaways of this presentation is that every attendee can relate to it at some point on a personal level. From entry level employees to C-Suite executives, this message has something for everyone. By challenging them to reflect on ways that they can give back to those around them, attendees discover what is most important to them and as a result close the gap between having to be safe and intrinsically wanting to be, ultimately creating their own safety legacy.
