For Raise the Standard readers

You found an answer you couldn't evidence. Let's work out what it means.

You've just found a line you couldn't evidence if somebody asked tomorrow. Twenty minutes with me on what you actually wrote down: what carries real risk, what's noise and what I'd do first. No pitch at the end.

What you get in twenty minutes

We work from your answers, not a slide deck about mine

The worksheet has already done the hard part by showing you where the gap is and the call goes straight to what that gap means for you and your officers.

What carries real risk

The answers that would hurt if WorkSafe, your board or your insurer asked for the evidence tomorrow and why those ones matter more than the rest.

What's noise

The gaps that look alarming on paper and can safely wait while you deal with the ones that can't.

What I'd do first

The first move I'd make in your shoes, ideally one you can start this month with the people you've already got.

$7,500+ GST, WHERE A COMPASS STARTS

These are the same questions I work through when I run a Compliance Compass, the diagnostic organisations engage me for when they want their whole system looked at. On this call you get that thinking pointed at the one answer you couldn't back up.

Is this call for you?

It's built for the reader whose name sits against the answer

It's a good fit if

You've worked through at least one of the book's worksheets, even half of one
You're an owner, director, GM or the person leading health and safety
There's at least one answer you couldn't back up with evidence if somebody asked tomorrow

It's probably not the right call if

You want your whole system reviewed in twenty minutes, that's what Compliance Compass is for
You only need prequalification paperwork filled in to get a pass

Haven't done a worksheet yet?

Pick the one closest to your chapter and bring your answers

The call is far more useful when we've got your answers in front of us, even if you only got halfway through.

My promise

No pitch at the end

You'll get my honest view of what you wrote down and the first thing I'd do about it. If there's something you can sort yourself I'll tell you that. If Advanced Safety isn't the right fit I'll say so too.

2

We meet on Microsoft Teams. If someone else signs off on decisions like this, bring them along too.

Questions readers ask

Before you book

Is there a cost?

No, the call is my thanks for reading the book and doing the work on the worksheet.

Do I need to have finished the book?

No, you need one worksheet and one answer that bothered you, wherever you're up to in the book.

Can I bring a colleague?

Yes please, the best person to bring is whoever signs off on health and safety decisions in your business.

What if twenty minutes isn't enough?

For a single answer twenty minutes is usually plenty. If what you're carrying needs a proper look at the whole system, I'll say so plainly and you can decide in your own time whether a Compliance Compass makes sense.

Start with the answer that bothered you most

Twenty minutes with me on what you actually wrote down. If you'd prefer to write it down first, send an enquiry and you'll get a reply within one working day.
