| John Wright
John has a marine background and as a ship's master had first hand experience of dealing with a three man fatal accident at the Piper Alpha platform (before the 1988 disaster). Later, as Marine Superintendent, he was responsible for removing the burning drilling rig Ocean Odyssey from the well when it suffered a gas blow-out in the North Sea in 1988. This tragic accident cost the life of a 25 year old radio operator. These experiences have given John a passion for safety equalled only by his enthusiasm pursuing business excellence.
John has previously held the roles of Chief Executive and General Manager, and in 2000 started his training company, Wrightway Training Limited (WTL). WTL provides courses and consultancy across all safety and management skills. The company has a client list that includes blue chip companies such as Total Exploration & Drilling, British Gas and P&O Cruises. His specialist areas are 'human factors', safety and business culture change, behavioural safety, and accident investigation. These skills are used to support organisations in their quest for efficient and safe working environments.
