Description:

Epidemics and pandemics come with significant mental health impacts that need to be addressed at the societal but also organizational level. We will suggest ways that we can help ourselves and our teams adapt to unchartered territory—everything feels totally different—in the same way that we have learned to adapt to lives across the globe. Where do we look for support? How do we handle setbacks, awkwardness and miscommunication? And how can we and those we manage grow and evolve from this situation?

Finally, we will discuss how the multiple crises caused by the COVID-19 pandemic are changing the nature and role of management and why this could be an opportunity for collective good.
