02:43- What is your “hummingbird approach “?
- The Hummingbird is a South American fable that has been passed down for centuries, believed to originate from the Inca period.
- It tells the story of a forest fire, where all the animals flee except for the hummingbird. Instead of running away, the hummingbird flies to the nearby river, picks up a drop of water, and repeatedly goes back and forth to try to extinguish the fire.
- Other animals mock the hummingbird, believing its efforts to be futile.
- However, the hummingbird remains determined, saying it is doing the best it can.
- Eventually, the other animals join in, and together they successfully put out the fire.
- This fable teaches the concept of marginal gains, where every small action, regardless of how insignificant it may seem, can have an impact.
- It also emphasizes the importance of leadership and caring for others, as the hummingbird exemplifies these qualities.
16:20- Importance of employee engagement and education when it comes to maintaining a culture of health and safety at L’Oréal
- Employee education and engagement are crucial for maintaining a culture of health and safety. Without them, a genuine culture of health and safety cannot exist.
- People are at the heart of everything we do, and the success of a company, such as L’Oréal, relies on its employees at all levels.
- Training programs play a significant role in educating employees, and we have various training initiatives in place.
- We also provide training for online managers to align them with our methodologies and help them balance safety responsibilities with their other tasks.
- Finding the right balance between safety and profitability is important because a company must provide returns to stakeholders to sustain itself.
- The goal is to make leadership visible and impactful in the realm of health and safety and to actively engage and involve employees so that they can contribute to creating a safer environment.
