Session Description
You are stretched. Your teams are stretched. Your organization is stretched. But what are your next steps to ensure that you and your employees stay resilient, engaged, and productive through this big disruption?
The global pandemic has created situations and scenarios that we have not confronted both professionally and personally. The ability to apply a disruption-friendly mindset to these shifts will be necessary to serve teams, retain personnel, and meet budgets. Mile High SHRM HR Professionals will learn a resilience skill set to move through transitions while continuing to produce high-quality results.
In this powerful keynote, Kathy Parry will share how devastating news led her on a journey to discovering the keys to thriving in the face of challenging circumstances. While sharing her 3-R method for resilient behaviors (React, Reframe, Re-energize), she will reframe how we look towards the future in a post-pandemic world. Participants engage in the topic with interactive exercises and will leave with their own plan to build resilient behaviors with their leadership and their teams.
Kathy will inspire and encourage you to stretch, not snap when faced with disruption. Known for her candid stories and optimistic approach, Kathy is an expert in creating energetic teams and engaged professionals.
