Leading Safety Through Culture, Technology, and Resilience

Safety leadership is defined not by position, but by action. By leading from where you are — whether in the cockpit, the hangar, or management — you help shape culture, harness technology, and build resilience.  

The information you submit will allow the Event Organizing Committee to select presentations that are the most relevant to the BASS 2026 theme. Please be mindful that we are looking for presentations that encompass all facets of safety across business aviation. We are interested in presentations that focus on the flight deck, maintainers, cabin crew, FBOs, and fueling, among others.   

Please note that presentations may be selected for delivery in either live sessions or pre-recorded formats, depending on the event’s needs and scheduling considerations. In addition, submitters may be invited to join a panel formed around similar submissions and could be asked to adjust their original proposal accordingly.
