How Work Culture Helps or Hinders Individual and Organizational Health
(Especially During the Covid-19 Pandemic)


Michael Stallard and Katie Stallard

 


About This Event

Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, 80% of Americans reported they were afflicted by stress. A number of factors related to the Covid-19 pandemic are contributing to rising stress, including fear of contracting the highly transmissible virus, the negative economic impact, job uncertainty and increased social isolation at a time when America was already undergoing an epidemic of loneliness. Given the present realities, how can those of us in leadership, human resources and training help our colleagues?

Learn why cultivating a culture that boosts human connection is essential for individuals and organizations to thrive and discover steps you can take while maintaining physical separation during this time.


Learning Objectives


At the end of this session, participants will be able to: 

  • Use an exercise that helps individuals evaluate their primary stressors, sources of relational support and resiliency practices

  • Explain in basic biological terms how chronic stress undermines the health of individuals

  • Name three types of relational work cultures and how they help or hinder individual and organizational performance, especially when people are facing chronic stress

  • Implement several best practices to create and sustain a culture of connection that helps individuals and organizations cope with stress and perform their best work


ATD Capability Model


This session complements the Communication, Emotional Intelligence and Decision Making, Collaboration and Leadership, Project Management, and Lifelong Learning.
