TGIF! Another week, another course! And what’s great about it, is that I am actually ready for more!

Being in a position to learn techniques that save lives is an enormous privilege! But apart from the privilege to be here... the gaining of this knowledge gives one the power to make a difference in the world! It reminds me of Peter Parker’s Uncle in the movie Spiderman, where he said to Peter: “With great power, comes great responsibility!” To me that is truly what SHEQ management is about.

After the first two weeks I would really like to say thank you to the people that have granted me this possibility! They know who they are, and I will still thank them many times in person. Just hope they don’t get bored with it!!! J. The programme is professionally administered and managed. I sometimes don’t feel worthy of all the attention, but I soon realised that this is what IRCA is all about! Giving the necessary attention to the tasks and people at hand....and much more than what is necessary! I am so proud to become part of that culture!

We wrote the MSRM assessment today, and my feeling was initially that it went well. Did I achieve my goal???.... Well yes, and I am proud of it. Allow me my moment to gloat! The course was insightful and I enjoyed it. It does sometimes feel like a long process but if one keeps one’s eye on the goal it makes it manageable!

With regard to Pieter Hammann, our trainer: He definitely has a wealth of experience! I learnt a lot from him this week. I would definitely recommend him and also would like to commend him on a job well done. He also mentioned that we can organise a “field trip” to visit some places to see how relevant MSRM really is! That would be nice to do.

Have an awesome weekend and ....
Stay Classy Guys!!!
