“We are at a point in our continuous improvement EHS journey where we are plateauing in performance. We contacted ProAct Safety to provide thought leadership on methods to drive our EHS culture to the next level. Shawn recorded a keynote address for us to use at a recent EHS Summit which resonated strongly with our teams. His messaging and approach aligns very well with our mission and vision and will be a key factor as we continue to develop our strategic 5 year plan. Great resource!”
“Shawn did more than deliver; he left a LASTING IMPRESSION that has our organization eager to raise the bar!”
“The conferences was one of our BEST YET. Your talk resonated well with the audience and the feedback was great!”
“Shawn Galloway was an EXCELLENT keynote speaker for the Indiana Safety and Health Conference & Expo. We had to pivot to virtual and he was very flexible and easy to work with.. I would recommend Shawn to anyone considering him as a speaker for their event.”
