• The central role of leadership in shaping a resilient culture. We'll discuss the key competencies needed for adaptive, emotionally intelligent leaders who lead with empathy and actively foster psychological safety within their teams.
This isn't just theory. We're breaking down how to move from a reactive stance to a proactive, data-driven approach to resilience. Tune in to gain the insights and actionable recommendations you need to transform your workforce into your most resilient asset and secure your organization's place as a leader in this ever-changing world.
