Opening Keynote: Harnessing the Power of Data - Salon VI

Data and information management are the new tools of EHS&S managers. Once an organization has the right data in the right hands, it can enter a new era where managers learn things about programs that couldn’t be seen before.

In the digital age of the Internet of Things, we have access to unparalleled data that enables the execution on compliance excellence. The best approach integrates data from disparate sources, identifies actionable information through analytics, and precipitates smarter decisions and processes.

Drawing on his experience as the head of IBM’s Global Building Management Center, Joe Phillips will highlight the untapped power of data that already surrounds you. You will take away insights as to how your employees, equipment and buildings are all generating data that can reveal powerful information to make your operations work better.

Breakout Session A

5 Ways to Facilitate User Engagement

As companies employing EHS software mature in their thinking and usage, their focus often shifts from what information they can get out of the system to figuring out how to get more/better information into the system. Their focus becomes driving user involvement. The key is to recognize it as a relationship opportunity. Telling employees they have to do something secures compliance. Demonstrating value to employees drives engagement. This session will outlines steps you can take to earn that engagement.
