A new study released by Fierce, Inc. finds that toxic employees continue to cause issues in the workplace, and the costs to the business are significant.

What’s more concerning is the long-term impact that toxicity, when left unaddressed, can have on organizational culture and results.

And it is often left unaddressed!

Results show only 18 percent of employees surveyed would share their concerns with management about a toxic employee and over 40 percent believe that once alerted, management will do nothing.

Join Beth Wagner, (LinkedIn profile) Fierce Master Facilitator, as she explores what employee toxicity is really costing your bottom line, and shares 5 Fierce Strategies to help you remove the impact of toxic employees on your culture.

What Does It Mean To Be ‘Mindful’?

How can one apply the practice of Mindfulness to enhance the performance of their project team(s) – and, while we’re at it — ourselves?

Mindfulness is nothing new, but in our age of constant digital bombardment, endless distractions, and paralyzing mind clutter, it’s more important than ever for PMs, leaders, stakeholders, and team members alike to be able to apply Mindfulness – awareness (and acceptance) — to what we think, feel, and therefore do (or don’t do).

In this webinar, Matthew Michaelson (LinkedIn profile) will introduce you to Mindfulness as an invaluable Wellness concept, as well as a management approach and (daily) practice for enhancing project team performance, individual calm, and the overall wellness of any organization.

Learning outcomes will include:

• What Mindfulness is
  • And why it’s important in Project Management,
• How one can bring Mindfulness to their team and to enhance client relations,
• Mindfulness exercises to practice alone or with a group,
  • And a brief ‘5-minute Try’
    • An introduction to meditation.

The presenter will also offer short term and long term Mindfulness practice suggestions and resources for reference moving forward.
