Transport Safety Cultural Compass – Executive Diagnostic (Micro-Course)
Seven how-to lessons for Safety Accountable Execs & senior leaders: to build a board-defensible cultural safety snapshot.
Course Summary
Most transport organisations are not short of safety data. They are short of cultural clarity: a shared, executive-level view of what is strong, what is fragile, and what must be strengthened next.
This micro-course gives you a simple, structured way to diagnose cultural safety using Avia Intelligences' Transport Safety Cultural Compass, which is not an audit or a means of testing compliance. The compass is a leadership instrument designed to convert executive judgement into a repeatable snapshot that has been supported by factual evidence and translated into practical action and follow-through.
What You Will Learn (7-Lesson Overview)
Lesson 1: Start Here — What This Diagnostic Is (and Isn’t)
Set the executive intent, avoid group think, and frame the Compass as a leadership tool for clarity and prioritisation.
Lesson 2: Transport Safety Values
Learn why values matter at executive level and how they anchor culture when pressure rises.
Lesson 3: Transport Safety Values — Anchoring Safety Culture Before Targets
Select up to 20 values your organisation will genuinely reinforce, and translate them into practical cultural expectations.
Lesson 4: Cultural Safety Compass - Scoring Maturity and Priority (1–5)
Score all eight cultural categories with discipline—separating maturity today from priority next.
Lesson 5: Evidence Notes — One Board-Defensible Fact per Category
Make the diagnostic credible by recording one concise, factual evidence signal per category—operational, assurance, change, or trend-based.
Lesson 6: Action Plan — From High Priority to Focused Goals
Convert your highest priorities into focused goals with milestones, ownership, dates, and a governance rhythm that drives follow-through.
Lesson 7: Review Cadence, How We Can Help, and References
Lock the Compass into a simple monthly review cadence, understand optional Avia support pathways, and access reference guidance to keep the diagnostic consistent over time.
