Julie will be speaking on Thursday, 23 April 2026, from 13:30–14:15 at the Powering the Future stage in Hall 9, joining industry leaders for an important discussion on what effective safety leadership looks like in today’s wind sector.
CAVU recently completed a 3‑day leadership workshop with a global wind service provider at a wind site in north‑central Oregon along the Columbia River Gorge. The session brought together senior lead technicians and site leads from nearby windfarms and marked another step forward in a strong, ongoing partnership focused on developing frontline leaders in the wind industry.
Human Performance is bigger than training. It’s about how leaders lead, how systems support work, and how organizations learn in real operations.

CAVU recently supported a five-day workshop focused on Safety, Wells Operations Crew Resource Management (WOCRM), Simulations, and Roundtables—bringing together an international group of participants from Mexico, Turkey, Iraq, Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Pakistan.
CAVU delivers tailored, in-person seminars, workshops, and roundtables built for the realities of high-consequence work. This isn’t motivational speaking or generic leadership theory. It’s hands-on, practical training led by coaches with experience in demanding environments—so your leaders leave with tools they’ll actually use.
CAVU was proud to be represented at the 2026 IADC Drilling Caspian & Black Sea Conference, held 4–5 February in Baku, where industry leaders gathered to discuss the future of drilling safety, technology, and operational performance across the region.
CAVU, The RelyOn Leadership Academy, has signed a multi-year contract with Shell to provide leadership and coaching support within its Assist & Assure (A&A) program.
Hazell—a former Royal Air Force squadron commander and Top Gun instructor—shared personal stories from his military aviation career, including a near-death ejection that underscored the life-saving power of simulation-based training. He connected those lessons to the drilling environment, where high pressure, split-second decision-making, and teamwork are just as critical.
CAVU's David Hazell is set to speak at the IADC Well Control Conference ont he topic of “Enhancing Well Control Training through Simulation and Crew Resource Management (CRM)” -- in this presentation David will discuss challenging the status quo of training in high-risk environments—and propose a bold, proven alternative.
CAVU partnered with an offshore client to eliminate life-altering injuries by transforming how teams communicate before, during, and after high-risk work.

We’re proud to announce the addition of three exceptional coaches to our global team—each bringing decades of real-world experience in high-stakes environments and a shared passion for shaping safer, stronger teams.
Many organizations face the challenge of progressing from a reactive, compliance-based safety culture to one where safety is naturally integrated into the organization's decision-making, leadership, and daily behaviors. The HSE Culture Ladder framework offers an insightful approach to help organizations assess and enhance their safety culture, transitioning them to a proactive safety mindset that drives long-term success.

The safety of your workforce and operations hinges on strong leadership.
As more companies become multinational and expand workforces around the globe, the need for translation and inclusive communication will continue to grow. Leaders have more access than ever to tools, resources, and training to ensure their employee safety and inclusion in the workplace.
Leader feedback conversations are necessary for continuous improvement.

Delegation is not just about assigning tasks; it’s about training and trusting team members to perform under pressure, ensuring they are prepared for any scenario. Success in delegation is measured by the team's achievements and the leader's ability to recognize and reward those efforts.
