We explore how gratitude strengthens safety, why pain can shape purpose, and how simple daily actions build trust that policies alone cannot. Practical challenges help leaders swap speeches for presence and metrics for meaning, especially through the holidays.

• gratitude as a human factor in safety culture
• specific appreciation driving voice, ownership, connection
• case study of daily thank-yous changing team behavior
• mentors, challengers, and painful lessons shaping purpose
• three leader challenges for empathy and presence
• combating complacency through trust and accountability
• building community focused on people over metrics

“Have a great and safe Thanksgiving. Remember there’s more to life than just safety. There is people… walk into this week with a renewed focus on people. Be present, be grateful, and lead on purpose.”
