The last few years have reshaped the workforce in ways we can’t ignore—1 in 4 employees has experienced a layoff, 1 in 5 is managing caregiving, and countless teams are navigating the ripple effects of uncertainty. For HR and talent leaders, that means culture is fragile, engagement is slipping, and the margin for error with leadership has never been smaller.
In this interactive one-hour session, we’ll return to the leadership basics that matter most right now: how to create stability when the future feels unstable, how to guide teams through disruption without losing trust, and how to model confidence when answers aren’t clear by teaching you about The Bounce Back Factor. You’ll walk away with practical tools to help your managers build healthier cultures, keep top performers engaged, and lead people through the unknown with resilience.
Because when leaders learn to navigate uncertainty, they don’t just prevent turnover—they unlock stronger teams, better decisions, and a workplace where people can truly thrive.
