Risk Management is not sexy or action packed, in fact when having to present risk management concepts to staff, it tends to lead to a lot of eye rolling and yawning. We had to find a way to cover the very important topic, so we could grab the attention of staff and involve them in the task of understanding Risk Management. The Aquatic Risk Management Scale was developed at Crown Valley Community Pool as a tool to involve the staff in a productive discussion of Risk Management.

This session was inspired from a webinar my head guard and I saw. We really use this for staff training and it has been a success.

A safety workshop introducing the process in system safety, safety management and aviation risk mitigation.
SMS is all about decision-making in safety. Thus it has to be a decision-maker's tool, not a traditional safety program separate and distinct from business and operational decision making.
But it’s the 800 lb. gorilla in the room: All ICAO, (International Civil Aviation Organization) members, are required to implement a Safety Management System (SMS). The FAA filed a “difference” with ICAO detailing that it is not currently in full compliance with the ICAO requirement, but is considering SMS rule making. PART 121 got launched, but what’s with the Part 21, 119, 131, 125, 135, 141, 142 and 145 certificate holders?
This workshop should give you some insight:
- Overview of Aviation Safety Management Systems & Change Management
- Who needs to implement?
- How to implement?
- When?
- An example of SMS for PART 91 and PART 135

Today’s recreation managers, supervisors and directors have to be extremely creative in order to catch and maintain the attention of their employees. Successful people managers beg bow and yes even steal ideas to keep the work place fresh and interesting. We are going to identify 11 management ideas in an effort to offer different ideas to help spark creative thinking.
Managers, Supervisors, Aquatics- Anyone who has to supervise employees or volunteers
This is a fun list of ideas. Its main purpose is (hopefully) to give the audience, one or two ideas to inspire them so they can feel like they have something thought provoking to take back to the office and turn the mundane into something a little more interesting.
