Session

EHS Leadership – Building Skills, Trust, and Culture from the Ground Up

Case Study

Tuesday, April 28

09:30 am - 10:00 am

Live in Frankfurt

Less Details

Effective EHS leadership is more than enforcing rules – it’s about enabling supervisors, shaping culture, and integrating safety and sustainability into everyday operations. This session explores the core competencies EHS leaders need today: from communication and influence to strategic alignment. It also addresses the often-overlooked challenge of working with – not against – operational leaders, and shows how EHS becomes part of the value-creating process, not a siloed function. In this session, you will learn:

  • What leadership skills are essential to influence and support frontline supervisors
  • How to build trust and alignment with operational leaders – and what to realistically expect
  • Why safety culture cannot be treated as a standalone initiative
  • How to embed EHS thinking into core processes to drive real ownership and lasting change
