Tender Collisions: Minimizing Distress When Change and Crisis Collide
We’ll “bring” the training to you live, virtually (or live, in-person when it is safe to do so) and our highly engaging trainers will make the learning experience fun, memorable, and highly applicable.
Change doesn’t have to cause a crisis, and crisis doesn’t have to cause change. But when a single external force causes both crisis and change, how do we effectively lead? When a change we’re involved in produces crisis, or when a crisis hits that will require temporary or long-lasting change, how do we lead well?
The 2020 global pandemic surfaced a skill gap for many leaders. While some are capable of change management, and others shine in moments of crisis, the vast majority of leaders feel relatively ill-equipped for how to navigate and lead our teams when crisis and change occupy the same moment.
