Live, let live and thrive: Succeeding in organisations by navigating competing cultures, priorities and conflict
9th November 2020
As a healthcare worker you may have experienced certain challenges in navigating your work environment prior to the current pandemic. COVID-19 has caused huge shifts in life, life-style, work, and society in general causing deepening of such challenges. Seismic shifts in the past such these have seen irreversible change.
Where do you find yourself in this volatile, complex, uncertain and ambiguous environment?
The ABC of coping is generally held to be keeping active, taking breaks, and staying connected. Beyond just coping, resilience is about surviving by navigating the challenges and creating new opportunity to survive, thrive and lead yourself, others, and organisations successfully.
In this webinar, the third in a series of four, the panel will help you explore different aspects of an organisation to help to navigate yours. It will discuss aspects of organisational structure, culture and change. Our guest speaker, Jann Gardner, Chief Executive of NHS Golden Jubilee, an organisation that provides innovation driven care to patients across Scotland will discuss the agile leadership and thinking beyond visible horizons in the context of change.
Different scenarios of common day to day issues faced at work, will be played out for the participants. Join this webinar to discuss non-technical aspects of life as a surgical clinician to be successful during and beyond the pandemic.
