Separating The Wheat from the Chaff with Dave Johnson, Editor ISHN - Industrial Safety and Hygiene News

Dave has been in the field for over 30 years. He has seen many things come and go. He has seen what’s worked or has had enough substance (wheat) to make it around the globe. He has also seen many many supposedly great ideas launched with bright lights and big expectations fizzle out in less than two years (chaff).

So, Dave has had a unique look at almost ALL the programs, processes and initiatives put forth. But he’s also had unique access to the people behind the new ideas: who they are and what they stand for. That alone is well worth listening to. However, Dave also has a serious warning for all the safety professionals out there in terms of their attitude or perspective about the “next big thing” - and it’s not what you’d expect. So, please join us February 17, at 1:00pm (eastern)
