Leadership During Crisis: Building Confidence & Taking Intelligent Risks (Dr. Rita Stephan, Research Fellow at North Carolina State University, NCSU; Regional Coordinator for Religious and Ethnic Minorities in the Middle East, USAID; Formerly: Director of the Middle East Partnership Initiative/MEPI, US Government, 2 hrs.)
This webinar focuses on elements that are essential to leading a team to success, especially during challenging times. Intellectual risk taking is a new approach that is introduced in the educational system but is slow to be adopted in the workforce. Conforming rather than risk-taking has historically been rewarded, but the new work environments are starting to reward those who stand out.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
- Participants will learn how to encourage, adopt and reward intellectual risk taking;
- Participants will learn how to improve communication to reduce conflict, promote understanding over judging, increase self and social awareness, and provide tools for managing relationships and responsibilities during crisis, all while encouraging trust and loyalty (Adaptive Leadership);
- Participants will learn about leadership during Corona Virus;
- Participants will learn about communication to change.
