REGISTRATION IS CLOSED

2020 has already been a remarkable year. From dramatic market fluctuations to a global pandemic, it has been anything but “business as usual”. Whether we like it or not, everyone is  experiencing great change.

But how does change impact us, both on a personal and team level?

Join Jessica Prater, MS, PHR, for our workshop “Your Brain at Work: Initiating and Accelerating Change” at 11:00 AM CT on April 23. We will discuss the psychological impact of change and how we can cope without getting burned out. Beyond just dealing with current challenges, we are going to talk about how to thrive using tools and techniques to accelerate innovation. 

Change is just not personal – we will focus on how to lead your team through times of great uncertainty. Make no mistake – this is a critical time. Businesses that will come out on top are the ones that lean in to the discomfort and learn to initiate change.
