The portrait of financial stress among today’s employees may not look like employers think it does, because it doesn’t belong only to employees on the low end of the pay scale.

Certainly, employees living paycheck-to-paycheck without enough in an emergency fund to cover unexpected expenses are financially stressed. But there are many more employees who experience financial stress – those who may be able to cover basic needs, but are not able to meet a myriad of other financial responsibilities they have, such as elder care and medical bills.

While it happens in varying degrees, nearly every employee wants some type of relief from their financial stress, and employers can help. Relieving some of employees’ financial stress enables them to be more productive, engaged employees.

In this webcast, Shannon Lane (LinkedIn profile) will:

• Take a deep dive into why so many employees are financially stressed;
• Look at four financially-stressed employees — how they look at their financial situation, what their financial behavior is like and what financial choices they make based on those available to them; and
• Discuss how employers can help employees do more with their money and achieve some level of financial flexibility.

Real World Project Management Series

The real-world project management webinar series are exclusively for individual members.

Join this webinar for an introduction to the emerging field of Behavioural Project Management – designing processes around the beings that predict and deliver projects: humans.

Josh Ramirez and Dr. Jodi Wilson from the Institute for Neuro and Behavioural Project Management will provide thought provoking discussions on why designing project management processes around the human brain is, a no-brainer.

Fundamentally people run projects, people are part of projects and project success is influenced by humans.  Economics, finance, and supply chain management have recognized the human factor by embedding behavioural sciences throughout their technical disciplines.

Josh and Jodi believe it is time to move our discipline into one that’s built on science and is grounded around the very beings that predict and deliver projects: humans.

Designing project management around the brain will eventually lead to a redesign of project processes, interfaces, and metrics, toward better prediction and delivery of human endeavours.

This is the first of a two-part presentation, part two of this presentation will take place on the 19 March 2020

Presenter:

Josh Ramirez (LinkedIn profile) is Founder and President of Institute for Neuro & Behavioural Project Management.
