Background

About William Whitner

I am Passionate about creating a workplace that is safe and efficient, utilizing training and inclusion. Fostering a workforce that is professional where all situations can be handled safely and decisively to positively effect the bottom line. In my 21 years at Norfolk Southern, I gained knowledge and skills that tuned me in to the railway industry. There are situations here that don't exist anywhere else. I have been through NS training at the McDonough GA training center for track maintenance, welding and advanced foreman. I have completed the NS corporate, train the trainer, program allowing me to present Diversity training modules. I helped to develop Diversity training modules and presented them all over the NS system. I have worked on Tie gangs, Rail gangs, Section gangs and have done everything from labor to machine operator to foreman and flagging foreman for contractors. I have inspected track and I feel I possess the skills to supervise on all of these types of work groups. I am especially interested in Safety training and compliance and Diversity.
