/in , , /by

Target Leadership President and CEO, former USAF A-10 Fighter Pilot, Jeff “Odie” Espenship, is presenting at the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) Annual European Health, Safety and Environment Conference in Amsterdam this September.

Odie first presented to IADC in 2009 and received a 99.8% approval rating from over 400 participants. His presentation addresses how leaders influence worker behavior and maintain job culture. He warns leaders to watch for the phrase “I’ll be careful” because it usually means someone is about to something dumb, dangerous or different. His approach can be described as “Edutainment” – a message peppered with knowledge, humor, humility, and entertainment.

Target Leadership, founded by Odie after the loss of his brother in an aviation accident, refers to a company’s employees and staff as “fighter pilots.” Target Leadership speakers use their aviation background and experience as fighter pilots to motivate and encourage a company’s “fighter pilots” to embrace company leadership safety systems using real life and death experiences and examples.
