Kenny Gibson
W
2022 Team Leader of the Year
With a focus on policy and documentation, Gibson has enhanced Banyan Air Service's safety
practices and has led the FBO to Stage 2 IS-BAH Registration.
BY JOSH SMITH
hen Kenny Gibson sets out to
do something, he sees to it that
the task is completed and done
to the best of his ability. He's
applied that attitude to the safety
initiatives being undertaken at
Banyan Air Service.
He has risen into a leadership position
quickly. Since beginning with Banyan at
Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE)
in 2007, Gibson has been promoted to
third shift supervisor, second shift supervisor
and training manager.
Now serving as training and safety
manager - a role which he has held since
2016 - and vice chairman of Banyan's
Safety Committee, Gibson manages five
on-the-job trainers and works alongside
the line service manager to help lead
a team of 42 employees in the line service
department
What's more, Gibson has been instrumental
in implementing a new training
manual with a complete emergency
response plan (ERP) and a safety management
system (SMS). Most recently,
he guided Banyan Air Service through
the International Standard for Business
Aircraft Handling (IS-BAH) process,
and documented safety procedures
to secure Stage 2 registration in the
IS-BAH program.
For his dedication to improving operations
and ensuring the safety of his
colleagues, Gibson has been named
Ground Support Worldwide's 2022 Team
Leader of the Year.
