The Next Step Series: Avoiding Ulcers in the "New Abnormal World" (1 hour) [NT]

Overview

In today’s “new abnormal” COVID environment, waves of changes are pushing at each of us from all sides and forcing us to adapt. What works? What fails? How can we adapt faster? This facilitated discussion covers the topic from both the human capital viewpoint and from the operational side of the Manager’s desk. We will build the skills and processes needed to manage others through change - either co-workers or clients.

Highlights

Attendees will examine how change affects critical thinking, how it can create opportunities for fraud, and how it hurts a high-performing culture.

Then, we will review tools that have a positive effect on anticipating change and maintaining an adaptive mindset into the future.

Finally, we will strategize how to break negative communication and conflict patterns that can damage high-performing teams.

The overall goal is an adaptable, resilient workforce that is comfortable with continuous change, and a personal style of behavioral flexibility. Specific case studies are shared that reinforce the learning objectives.
