About this listen

What does it take to keep utility crews safe during everyday work — and in the middle of a hurricane? In this episode of Operate Smarter, host Sean McGee talks with James Banner, SVP of Administration and Safety at Pike Corporation, one of the largest utility infrastructure providers in the U.S.

James shares how Pike built a strong, top-down safety culture over the past two decades — and how real-time data is helping crews work smarter today. You’ll hear what it’s like to lead large-scale storm response efforts, why recognition is critical to retention, and how Pike is thinking about AI for frontline training and hazard prevention.
