Join us for an interesting discussion, "When life shows up at work: integrating compassion with real-time business needs."
Laura Wallace, MSW, Founder of Highwire Solutions, and Principal Work-Life Consultant will present:
When a co-worker or staff member is in crisis, (e.g., serious illness; grieving; caregiving; divorcing; or struggling interpersonally with communication or conflict, etc.), the ripple effect is often unpredictably disruptive and destructive to the workplace.
Typically, in such a crisis, leadership responds in one of two ways: not at all or with a compassionate, personal short-term solution. Unfortunately, in both typical responses, the result is all-too-often an unsustainable compounded predicament. Laura Wallace will talk about these inevitable employee life-events, and share an overview of the resources available to prevent and or respond to the business impact with skill and confidence.
