    JMC Meet the Experts - Brian Fielkow

    Today, we are joined by a true trailblazer in safety leadership and risk management, Brian Fielkow.    With over three decades of executive experience in high-stakes, safety-sensitive industries—including his tenure as CEO of Jetco Delivery, where his safety-first approach helped grow the business tenfold, and his current role as Executive VP of Risk Resources at Acrisure—Brian knows firsthand that a vibrant safety culture is built from the ground up.   He is an internationally recognised speaker and the author of several books, including his newly released Making Safety Happen: The Roadmap to a Safe, Productive & Profitable Business.    Brian is here to challenge the myth that safety and productivity are at odds, and to share how we can make safety a core corporate value rather than just another department. Brian, welcome to the show.

    JMC Meet the Experts - Marisa Firkins

    In this podcast episode we are tearing up the compliance rulebook and talking about what really keeps people safe at work. Our guest today has a professional backstory that reads more like an action thriller than a traditional corporate CV. Before founding her award-winning consultancy, Safety Forward, she spent 22 years as an investigator with the National Crime Agency—risk-assessing everything from tactical operations and asset protection to international piracy. Now, she’s channeling that elite experience into shaking up the health and safety sector. She is a fierce champion of 'care over compliance,' openly challenging the faceless, generic 'tick-box' exercises that lock businesses into unhelpful contracts. She believes that lasting safety culture starts with protecting your most important asset: your people. https://safetyforward.co.uk https://www.jmc-safety.com #SafetyForward #HealthAndSafety #WorkplaceCulture #SafetyLeadership#CareOverCompliance #BusinessResilience #WomenInSafety #RiskManagement #CMIOSH #LeadershipDevelopment #Podcast #SafetyPodcast #BusinessPodcast#WorkplaceSafety #NationalCrimeAgency #CompanyCulture #SafetyFirst #EmployeeWellbeing

    JMC Meet the Experts - Clive Lloyd

    In this episode, we dive deep into the human side of safety and organisational culture. For decades, the workplace safety conversation has been dominated by red tape, rules, and reactive compliance. But what if the true key to world-class safety performance isn't another checklist, but rather... trust and psychological safety? Joining us all the way from Australia to unpack this and more  is Clive Lloyd. Clive is a deeply experienced psychologist, as well as the Co-Director and Principal Consultant at GYST Consulting.  After starting his career in clinical psychology and trauma recovery—often supporting families affected by workplace tragedies—Clive recognised a desperate need to shift how organisations handle safety.  He saw that punitive, reactive investigations weren't working, and decided to bring an evidence-based, psychological approach to the safety space. Today, Clive is globally recognised his work. He is the developer of the highly acclaimed Care Factor Program and the author of the brilliant book, Next Generation Safety Leadership: From Compliance to Care. His pioneering work even earned him a spot among the top 5 Global Thought Leaders and Influencers on Health & Safety by Thinkers360. In this episode, we’re going to discuss how to bridge the gap between organisational intent and human experience, and how leaders can build genuine cultures of care. Whether you're an executive, a safety professional, or a frontline manager, get ready to take some notes. Please join me in welcoming Clive Lloyd #JMC #CliveLloyd #GYST https://www.gyst.com.au/our-team www.JMC-Safety.Com

What about the imposter syndrome, the boardroom battles, or that nagging feeling of being "just a filing cabinet" for paperwork?Joining me today are two people who have made it their mission to answer those exact questions. They are the co-hosts of the brilliant Aunty Treacle podcast—an "agony aunt" show specifically for the safety professional and anyone feeling a bit stuck at work. Meet the ExpertsFirst, we have Anna Keen. Anna is a powerhouse in the world of professional development.
