XFluence is a collective of four passionate safety professionals from Europe, the US, China and South Africa.
We, the four XFluencers, were thrilled by the opportunity to learn and experience the power of coaching during the recent years and to spearhead the design and implementation of ‘safety coaching’ as a new and original safety management approach and leadership style in the world’s largest gas company’s engineering division.
We have experienced safety coaching as ‘inspiration,’ ‘life-changers,’ and ‘eye-openers,’ for us, for the ones that we helped to learn about it and the ones that we have coached.
This experience has shown us that a breakthrough in safety performance and culture is not magic. It can be achieved through the targeted implementation of learnable, novel, and fascinating leadership and communication skills.

USA
American and working as a safety professional for different organizations in the nuclear as well as in the oil & gas sector in the USA.
Sometimes in our industry, there is a certain stigma around safety and production. My passion is bridging the gap and understanding how we can better support production as a safety professional but still work within the policies and procedures.
It is my firm belief that with proper coaching, training, and communication, every incident is preventable.
