Event Date: March 27, 2025
2025 ushers in volumes of sweeping changes, and workplace crisis management helps business leaders hone their communication and teambuilding skills in today’s tumultuous business environment. Political change, the fear of AI, and natural disasters are fueling the 24/7 news cycle as we speak, leaving many employees frightened and companies unsure how to prepare for the next turn of events. In fact, in a recent study by IBM, managing disruption emerged as a top concern for CEOs, highlighting the urgency for effective crisis leadership skills. How HR and operational management teams lead through extended periods of upheaval directly ties to organizational effectiveness, culture change, and the bottom line. Join former CHRO of Nickelodeon Animation Studios, Paul Falcone, as he highlights his newest book, “Leading Through Crisis” (HarperCollins Leadership, 2023) and helps to identify new ways of mastering the ongoing disruption and aftershocks to our teams and organizations in addressing:
- Individual Crises, including dealing effectively with employee burnout and avoiding the preemptive strike of “retaliation.”
- Departmental & Team Crises, including mediating employee disputes and putting a final end to bullying and passive-aggressive behaviors.
- Company Crises, including demands for hybrid work and returning reluctant employees to the office, threats to unionize, and being prepared for further global crises and natural disasters.
