Start The role Collaboration

In practice

Collaboration

The role depends on working closely with others. That includes, among other things, having a close dialogue with:

  • Leadership and sponsors — who open doors and anchor that safety is held as a thing of its own
  • Those who own processes and everyday work — where safety needs to enter
  • People and teams who need something to reach for in concrete situations
  • Others to be trained in the role — when the practice needs to scale

Why it matters

Without collaboration, safety work becomes an island in the organization, rather than something woven into the way things get done.
