BST, a global leader in safety performance solutions, and Fort Hill Company, a leading provider of tools and technology for increasing and documenting the business impact of training, today announced a new strategic partnership. BST will use a customized version of Fort Hill’s Friday5s® training follow-through system, branded as bstfeedbackengine.com, in many of BST’s coaching and safety change initiatives. “We’re very proud to partner with the premier safety change leadership organization in the world to make follow-through a core part of their safety solutions,” said Andy Jefferson, president of Fort Hill Company. “Our research shows that a manager’s involvement with his or her employees is the single most important determinant of whether learning will be applied back on the job. BST emphasizes the critical role of leaders and managers in creating an injury-free culture. Our technology makes it easy for managers to discuss goals with their direct reports and to give them ongoing encouragement, coaching, and feedback.” “We are very enthused about our partnership with Fort Hill Company,” said Kristen Bell, BST Vice President, Research, Product & Service Development. “Using Fort Hill Company’s learning transfer system, powered by leading edge technology, will be integral to our process of leadership coaching. This alliance gives BST even greater capacity to help our clients develop safety leaders at all levels who can drive employee commitment, confidence, and capability to achieve ‘best in class’ safety performance.”
