THE WOODLANDS, Texas, March 25, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Terry L. Mathis, founder and chief executive officer of ProAct Safety, opened the Air Charter Safety Symposium on March 12, 2019. The annual conference promotes the highest levels of aviation safety, covering current and emerging safety challenges.
Mathis' keynote focused on how the Bradley Curve is descriptive but not prescriptive. A company does not automatically progress along the curve without deliberate effort, and Stephen Covey did not state that progression was the goal, but that it was the outcome of forming the seven habits.
"The most common misconception we find organizational leaders making about the Bradley Curve and other approaches to improving safety culture is the idea that the goal is to develop certain characteristics within the culture. But an excellent safety culture is one that develops the capability to effectively improve itself and reinforce the habits that enable it to progress toward excellence," said Mathis.
