What made us create this Workshop?
We recognised that leaders across the globe are struggling to navigate uncertainty in the workplace, in particular when it comes to dealing with the conflict that can arise in stressful situations. Giving teams feedback and having difficult conversations doesn’t have to be a flash point, but during periods of uncertainty things can quickly escalate.
So we designed and developed a program that delivers a focussed solution, based around the needs of modern businesses who are looking to improve their workplace culture and morale.
- According to a recent study by the Harvard Business Review, 87% of executives say that their ability to handle uncertainty is essential for their success.
- The Deloitte Human Capital Trends 2023 study found only 23% of organisations believe their leaders are equipped to lead effectively in a disrupted world.
- Another study by the World Economic Forum found that a positive and productive team culture is essential for innovation and growth.
- The World Economic Forum also found that 95% of jobs will require some level of adaptability in the future.
These are some of the challenges facing business leaders in a VUCA world, which this workshop helps you to overcome:
Increased competition
In today’s VUCA world, businesses are facing increased competition from all sides. This can make it difficult to stay ahead of the curve and to achieve your goals.
Uncertainty
The future is uncertain, and this can create anxiety and stress for teams. They may be worried about their jobs, their company’s future, and their own capacity to cope with change.
Feedback
Teams may be struggling to give and receive feedback effectively. This can lead to misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and missed opportunities.
Rapid change
The pace of change is accelerating, and this can make it difficult to keep up. Teams may be struggling to adapt to new technologies, new regulations, and new customer demands.
Conflict
Teams may be struggling to resolve conflicts effectively. This can lead to decreased productivity, morale, and innovation.
Difficult conversations
Teams may be struggling to have difficult conversations effectively. This can lead to avoidance, resentment, and even toxicity.
