If itÕs taught us nothing else, the COVID-19 pandemic has provided the business case for leaders to move from defensive risk management to a forward-looking stance based on strategic resilience. The pandemic crisis has dramatically illustrated the short-sightedness of focusing on a small number of well-defined risks and the need to instead create a long-term strategy to successfully navigate in a world where there is a dynamic pace of change.
Attend this webinar and learn how to move to a broader mandate of integrating the risk function with other core functions to enable a more holistic resilience strategy.

Even though self-awareness Ñ knowing who we are and how weÕre seen Ñ is important for job performance, career success, and leadership effectiveness, itÕs in remarkably short supply in todayÕs workplace.
When people are self-aware, they understand their strengths and challenges and know what helps them thrive. They also understand that how they see themselves may be different from how others see them. People with strong self-awareness skills recognize other people’s needs and feelings, enabling stronger emotional intelligence which results in having healthier relationships. They also have a growth mindset and learn from mistakes – being more reflective in nature.
Attend this webinar and learn how being aware of yourself and others is a key enabler in building a heathly culture both at work and at home. We will discuss how situational-awareness allows you to anticipate future conditions to reduce any potential negative impact. Learn how taking time to reflect and to learn from past experiences informs future decision-making and increases your ability to think beyond your current state.
