FAQs

Do you customize content by industry?

Yes. WE tailor examples, scenarios, and observation scripts to your risks (metals,

 

 

construction, aerospace, etc.) and language on site.

Is this training or coaching?

Both. Short, hands-on workshops plus 90-day coaching to build real habits on the floor.

 

How do we measure impact?

We track leader habits (observations, huddles, recognition) and leading indicators (near-misses, corrective-action close-out), then review monthly.

Can we run multi-site cohorts?

The method slots into existing huddles and workflows - no heavy change programs, just consistent leadership and field practices.
