Safety Leadership Course
For School Bus Operations
Why Leadership Matters in Safety
A strong safety culture starts with the NORMS established by leadership—these are the unspoken habits and behaviors employees follow day to day. Leaders influence these NORMS through their decisions on hiring, training, setting expectations, and enforcing standards. Their actions shape how employees approach their work and uphold safety on the job.
This course emphasizes that leadership isn’t about titles—it’s about guiding and motivating others toward a common goal. Effective leaders communicate clearly, listen with empathy, and respond thoughtfully to concerns. These behaviors help create a positive environment and drive long-term success.
