Hello Again Fellow Safety and Health Leader,

It’s been awhile I know. Safety Stuff is still my main writing objective. But I’m back to blogging every week. I wasn’t sure what I should blog on was my main hang up. Well, I’ve been doing gobs of research and though I’m still a bit foggy, I can see some details.

I’ll pass on tips and other cool stuff to make your safety and health program more fun and engaging. That’ll work. Plus let’s spend some time discussing the most difficult part of promoting safety–people!

Well here’s a tip for this week: Terry Buckhout from Meadowbrook TPA Associates SILBA asked if I had a short video as a teaser for a convention her company’s hosting where I’ll be the featured speaker. I said yes, but would you like me to shoot a short video just for your group? “Yes, that would be great!”

It wasn’t that hard at all. I tried shooting the video indoors but, even with “professional lights” (i.e. soft boxes), it didn’t have enough energy. So, Jackie and I went to the free Cohanzick Zoo nearby, and after an hour or so of shooting, we had a personalized introduction for Terry to use in her marketing. Here it is on YouTube:

Why not do something similar for your next meeting or event? Even though I was partially frozen by the time it was finished, we had a fun time creating it.

’till next time.
