Brian Scudamore To Address Transformational Leadership Annual Roundtable April 30

The arrangements have been made and the finishing touches are almost complete for the annual BC Safety Charter Roundtable at the Burnaby Delta Hotel and Convention Centre on April 30th.

At the much anticipated event, the BC Safety Charter’s 135 signatories and their guests will come together to discuss their progress since last year’s roundtable.

Brian Scudamore

The annual event, which has become a major part of the occupational health and safety calendar in BC, will feature Brian Scudamore; founder and CEO of 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, who will address delegates on the ways in which high impact leadership can transform an organization?

Titled, “Transformational Leadership,” Scudamore’s keynote address promises to provide an inspiring example for the CEOs and senior executives of the Charter who are to creating a workplace culture based on the principle that the effective management of health and safety is essential to long term profitability and sustainability.

World Café

This year’s roundtable will also feature a World Café format. World Café is a structured conversational process intended to facilitate open and intimate discussion, and link ideas within a larger group to access the collective intelligence or collective wisdom in the room.

Participants will move between a series of tables where they continue the discussion in response to a set of questions, which are predetermined and focused on the specific goals of each World Café.

Charter Membership

Charter membership has risen dramatically in the last two years as business leaders from across BC join the movement to reduce injury rates and make worker health and safety core corporate values.

The Charter was launched in 2011 and has grown to include more than 100 companies and organizations such as RIO Tinto Alcan, BC Hydro and Overwaitea Foods. Since its launch in 2011 the BC Safety Charter has been recognized both nationally and internationally and has been described as one of the most significant business initiatives in Western Canada.

“We are committed to driving that safety culture message home across all industries, businesses, organizations and communities in BC through our commitment to corporate and social responsibility,” says Charter Steering Committee Chair Ben Hume.
