I am an Industry Trainer focused on helping Operations Managers and Owners of maritime terminals to increase their Supervisors' productivity and compliance with safety and environmental regulations. I create site-specific training that is defensible, task-based, engaging and performance-oriented, and helps terminals be more efficient and competitive. Site-Specific Operations Training for Maritime Terminal Supervisors: 90% of industry training is unstructured. You probably know it as “job shadowing”. My approach is different for teaching operational tasks: I create Structured Training—the systematic development of task expertise—which structures delivery and eliminates inconsistent training. It produces robust training records that can stand up to an audit; compared to unstructured training, it can reduce training time by 75%. Supervisors emerge better equipped to do their job and more consistent in their performance.Site-Specific Training for Heavy Equipment Operators: A design that leads to Operators that are competent, confident, consistent and compliant with safety and environmental rules and regulations. How to Set Up a Structured Training System: For in-house Trainers and Operations Managers seeking ways to increase productivity, improve compliance and increase corporate competitiveness. I help with a training approach that creates accountability and measurable results. Work Process Development: For facilities under construction, I help Managers determine tasks for new supervisor positions. This contributes directly to a smoother start-up.Plant Operator Training: A task-based training system for Plant Operators in the pulp and paper, mining and power utility sectors. It leads to better understanding of the process for more efficient operating decisions. Are you striving to improve your training results?
