OMS LEAD
Imagine a team of leaders that know their roles and how they contribute to the team’s success. Targets are clear, and the plan to get there is shared and understood. The team is able to adapt to problems and thrives on change and continuous improvement.
We developed OMS LEAD to help organizations invest in their leaders at all levels, empowering managers and superintendents to give their people the structure, skillset, and confidence to excel in their roles.

TESTIMONIAL
OMS LEAD Testimonial: Etienne Tardif
The OMS Lead program was created to teach mining leadership skills to supervisors, mining managers, and superintendents to develop ‘Day in the Life’ of documents, guidelines and sets of expectations for the different roles reporting to them.
After successfully executing a program like this, there is a base of processes, structure, and tools. As a result, decisions are driven down to their appropriate level, because trust and accountability have also been driven down to that level.
