Katie first describes the need to be aware that many different types of biases are out there and how we are accountable to ourselves and those we work with.

Especially now, in our current reality, Katie discusses that this is the time and it how it is long overdue, to be honest with ourselves in how these biases play a role as automatic patterns of thinking, and ultimately eliminate discriminatory behaviors in how we live and interact.

We all have biases, it’s now the time to know them, learn how to overcome them and build a culture that promotes respect & engages others to be a part of the solution.

First, panic ensues.
Then comes paralysis.
These are the usual responses of workers & organizations
When crisis situations emerge!

Crises are totally unexpected, unknown  and unpredicted. Crisis situations like oil spills, factory explosions, loss of major customers, robbery and crime, sickness or a health pandemic grip us with fear.

They threaten our lives, properties and partially cripple or may even force a halt to business operations. These events are not anticipated. They lurk and then can suddenly take us by surprise and pose grave threats to businesses.

In these conditions, everyone in an organization must possess the necessary critical thinking skills and tools to assess and process the best approaches and responses to address the crisis situation, find solutions and evaluate the impacts of their decisions.

The lack of this critical thinking process could lead to more risks and financial impacts to the company.  So how do you bring your organization’s team together and have ALL HANDS ON DECK?

• Understanding the impact of an organization’s employees and team leaders’ readiness for crisis response.
• Effective crisis response and the critical involvement of mindsets and preparations
• Learn basic skills in Critical Thinking that apply to Crisis Situations
• Creating organization-wide awareness about the unknowns and unexpected crisis that could hit the business
• Case study on crisis responsiveness

A Panel Discussion

COVID-19 likely forever changed the workplace, the workforce and work itself. New remote work norms are the most obvious shift, but more broadly, as organizations recover from the effects of the pandemic, many will reimagine key aspects of their business models and innovate on legacy talent management processes and assumptions.

Senior executives in the HR and corporate real estate functions have both the opportunity and challenge to move from static to agile planning approaches that can continually incorporate changes in business and skill needs.

In this webinar, a panel of Gartner experts in corporate real estate and workforce planning discusses new ways to secure and utilize talent, and offers actionable advice for planning effectively in the post-COVID-19 environment.

Discussion Topics:

• Understand new talent realities
• Assess key considerations to implement remote work long term
• Plan for increased talent mobility and a socially distanced workplace

Panelists:

• Scott Engler (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio)
  • Gartner Principal Executive Advisor
• Nicole Kyle (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) 
  • Gartner Director, Advisory
• Emily Rose McRae
  • Gartner Director Quantitative Analytics and Data Science
