Abstract :
This paper discusses how leadership qualities of the “12th Man” can improve electrical safety in your organization. Emotionally involving and committing everyone to safety at the level of a truly dedicated fan takes a game plan. The most effective work comes from high performance teams who value trust, communication, problem solving, and shared leadership roles. Job satisfaction is derived from involvement, contribution, and the feelings that come from making a difference. Every person can play a part in creating a superior safe work environment. The attainment of higher performance through the electrical safety program should begin with “Why not me, Why not us?” [2]. Everyone has the opportunity to be a role model, to be involved in mentoring, to set personal goals, to participate in training, education, and share their ideas to improve safety. Personal growth and industry knowledge can be expanded through involvement in conferences and committees. Being a “12th Man” for electrical safety takes a higher level of commitment; it takes action, perseverance, and passion.
