All, Delivering a series of lunch and learn presentations to the business, around our in-house integrated management system. The audience will be non-HSSE folk who don't generally have many dealings with the policies and procedures within our management system. Presentation to raise awareness and explain that it does touch everyone in some way - a basic overview essentially. Ideally looking to show only pictures and talk around it, and I'm struggling with a suitable graphic/image/picture that represents management systems in general! Any suggestions? Cheers :-)

a series of interlocking gear wheels? What is the nature of your business? maybe something product related will make a connection?

You've answered your own question Jake. H&S Policy, Culture, Behaviours etc. impact on everyone. Create a mosiac representing all the activities within the organisation - extend this to show your customers and any other stakeholders.

DB the image link in your post has just lifted my seriously deflated spirits having spent a week on the lowest branches, covered in ..... and looking up to see nothing but sunshine swallowers In relation to the OP my personal favourite image is the one that describes Discworld (Terry Pratchet) - the Elephants representing various business activity notably all heading in different directions (sales, manufacturing, technical, distribution) supporting the business (the world) with the whole thing being underpinned by the star turtle - the slow moving but wise management system leading all the pillars in a single common direction

Or jigsaw puzzle clipart? @ David Bannister - LOL

Thanks for the suggestions!! Still mulling over, however the pillars or cogs are likley contenders, as I was looking for something abstract that would represent management system in general - I think the auidence would rlate to these :-) I have used PDCA before, to good effect, but was thinking more generally than that for this presentation!

I've used a picture of a spider web before to demonstrate how each strand is affected by another and how it all comes together with one goal. I even went so far as to have a video clip playing of a spider making a web (slightly sped up) as I spoke; apart from the people afraid of spiders it worked well :)
