Taking Care of the Caretakers: Building Compassionate, Innovative, and Inclusive Communities in Times of Challenge
This dynamic, interactive opening session delivers a transformational opportunity to learn powerful insights for supporting ourselves as well as our employees and clients in order to maintain positive attitudes and achieve optimal performance.
In the midst of 18 months (and counting) of pandemic life, we must continue to honor the importance of relationships in fostering healthy, empowered teams and advancing meaningful change. By modeling approaches to break down barriers and establish spaces of inclusive excellence, the presenter offers a real-time encounter that will offer practical strategies for implementation in our work sites and help create a deep sense of community at FOM/IT. This experience will be carefully curated to ensure that, whether in-person or virtual, participants will be equally engaged and impacted. Take advantage of this special time to learn, laugh, play, and celebrate one another and our work together!
