In a time of great change and great uncertainty in many areas, it is of the utmost importance that you take good care of yourself and help the teams you work with best. Teams can be your own team, or the teams and organisation you support in your role.

Although you cannot prepare for everything, you and your teams may be better equipped to respond to almost anything that is happening right now.

The purpose of this webinar is to explore the concept of resilience, both for yourself and your teams. You will learn to understand the difference between personal resilience and team resilience.

All of this is brought to life by Trudi’s research results from the Clipper Round the World yacht race.

The goal is to help you think about the environment in which you and your team work, and most importantly, give you input on what you can personally do to make a difference”

No Company Wants To Layoff Its Employees

The Great Recession of 2008 taught many organizations that letting go of people has downstream consequences to employer brand, employee morale and productivity, innovation and the ability to be agile and competitive once the economy recovers.

Yet, with the magnitude and length of the current pandemic-induced recession unknown, many organizations may feel they have no choice but to lay off a percentage of their workforce.

Rapid redeployment is gaining attention as companies look for opportunities to transfer current employees to internal roles, projects and temporary assignments within a matter of days or weeks.

In this webinar Jeanne Schad (LinkedIn profile) Talent Solutions & Strategy Practice Lead RiseSmart,will explore the value of rapid redeployment as an important option for employers to consider as part of their workforce toolkit.
