Ken Mudd

Ken has been an incredible mentor as I transition into the HSE field. His patience and willingness to guide me through my many 'whys' have been invaluable. He not only answers my questions but also challenges me to think critically, often helping me realize that I already have the answers within me. His support and understanding, especially during times when I feel mentally exhausted, have been a huge source of encouragement. He consistently lifts me up and restores my confidence. I couldn’t ask for a better mentor.

If you're considering working with Ken and Yorsafety just do it; I guarantee it's a decision you won't regret.

Ken is incredibly hardworking and solution focused, I can honestly say he is unlike any HSE expert I've worked with, he doesn't wrap us in red tape or just come in to tick a box, he focuses on building a positive safety culture that is proactive and works for our business and our teams.

His approach has had a huge impact on our business, our teams and on me as an individual. He pushes us to think differently, challenge the norm and to strive for better; he teaches safety in a way that makes it engaging for all levels and implements solutions that can be mirrored not just in safety but across our entire business. Over the last few years Ken has implemented solutions not only in the UK but across the globe, solutions that remove non value added tasks, promote our positive culture and ensure the safety of our people.

If you want safety to be embedded into your culture and not just a certificate on the wall speak to Ken!

As a leader my view on health & safety was very much focus on KPIs, and methodology. All necessary, but I was probably missing the big picture, and the organisations I’d been leading probably didn’t reach the highest level from a safety perspective. Having Ken in your team brings you the best level of expertise, bundled with his caring and kind approach. Ken knows how to create a dynamic which reaches all levels of the organisation and brings you to understand the big picture. His holistic approach includes each single individual in the organisation allowing it to make constant progress and avoiding any punishing or patronizing approach which shows quickly its flaws. Ken’s way of developing an efficient health & safety culture is immediately efficient and makes teams and their management very confident in their ability of working in a safe and healthy environment. I am delighted to see Ken offering his expertise and skills to a wider audience: helping companies to strengthen their safety to make them a better place to work and to live.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Ken Mudd for a number of years. He is a solid, decent, loyal chap. He has decades of hands on experience in the field of Safety Management, but goes above and beyond and understands that there’s way more to it than the transactional stuff. He partners with Leaders to empower them to do better, to create learning Cultures that help people and businesses thrive.

He has a real warmth to him and can easily build rapport with all levels of the organisation and always acts in a curious and non-judgmental manner to coach and mentor people to improve. He is a continuous learner himself and takes pride in always looking for the insights and ways to learn from everyday operational tasks as well as best practice across the industry. You won’t regret working with Ken as he’s a joy to be around.
