Safety Keynote Speaker

Through­out his career as a pro­fes­sion­al bas­ket­ball play­er in the NBA, as well as in his career as a safe­ty keynote speak­er, Mark has learned the impor­tance of hav­ing a strong, effec­tive and safe team. Com­mu­ni­ca­tion, coop­er­a­tion, inno­va­tion, and moti­va­tion all improve when you can count on your team­mates to have your back.

How­ev­er, if the team is not being pushed in the right direc­tion or is not moti­vat­ed to work togeth­er, it will nev­er reach its full poten­tial. As a safe­ty speak­er, Mark teach­es indus­try lead­ers how to get their team mem­bers to work togeth­er and com­mu­ni­cate in a pro­duc­tive, prof­itable, and safe fash­ion.

Safety Lessons From the NBA

For safe­ty and moti­va­tion, it’s key for you to under­stand that every mem­ber of your team is an indi­vid­ual. Because of this, they are each moti­vat­ed in their own per­son­al way. For some it may work to give a rous­ing speech. Oth­ers could pre­fer to sim­ply be hand­ed a task with para­me­ters and then be left alone. As a safe­ty keynote speak­er, Mark will show you how to iden­ti­fy how each mem­ber of your team is moti­vat­ed to do their best work.

After you find out how to moti­vate your team members…well, that is only half the bat­tle! Now that you know how to engage and involve each indi­vid­ual, you must learn how push their but­tons cor­rect­ly so that they can safe­ly exe­cute their jobs. As a safe­ty speak­er, Mark uses his expe­ri­ence on the court, in the shop, and in the office to show cor­po­rate lead­ers how to moti­vate their team mem­bers in the best way pos­si­ble.

In order to moti­vate and inspire mem­bers of a cor­po­ra­tion or group it’s impor­tant for lead­ers to com­mu­ni­cate effec­tive­ly. Being in the NBA taught Mark how to com­mu­ni­cate with many dif­fer­ent types of per­son­al­i­ties and he will show you how to uti­lize this skill.

Communicate Safety

As a safe­ty leader it is impor­tant to be able to com­mu­ni­cate clear­ly with your team in a man­ner that is assertive but not demean­ing.  Teach­ing them how to look out for each oth­er will give them a sense of empow­er­ment and pur­pose. Mark shows you and your company’s lead­ers how to do this through his speak­ing pro­gram.

It hap­pens on pro­fes­sion­al sports teams. It can hap­pen in busi­ness, in your busi­ness. Team­work is not a lux­u­ry. In the world of pro­fes­sion­al sports, if there is no team­work, you lose.
