"Safety is about coming home." Driven by this purpose for over 25 years, I work globally as a Keynote Speaker and specialist in transforming organizational cultures so that safety becomes a genuine value rather than just a requirement. I've led safety strategies at global giants like PepsiCo, Unilever, and Votorantim Cimentos, directly impacting thousands of employees in more than 30 countries, consistently achieving remarkable results in accident reduction. As an internationally recognized author, I have published more than 13 books translated into four languages, including "Safety Culture" and "Make the Difference," references for leaders seeking to shift mindsets and effectively embed safety within their teams. Currently, I'm the CEO of ACS Global Ventures and Founder of Escola da Segurança, working with over 250 companies worldwide to implement profound and lasting cultural transformations. As a Keynote Speaker, I've shared insights and inspiring stories with global audiences, helping organizations perceive safety as a genuine daily commitment. I'm also an active member of the Forbes Business Council, an advisor to the Harvard Business Review Advisory Council, and involved with leading safety organizations such as NSC and ASSP. My purpose is clear and unwavering: to ensure safety is embraced as an essential value in every organizational and personal decision. If you believe that safety truly means coming home at the end of the day, let's connect and turn this vision into reality.
