Join the Round Rock Chamber Entrepreneurship Council on Tuesday, October 5 at 8:00 AM at Centro. Topic: Bringing Our Whole Selves To Work: What the great resignation and rampant burnout are signaling about our workplaces. According to a recent Inc. article by Phillip Kane, more than 40% of employees are considering leaving their jobs in the next six months. What can leaders do about it? Kane suggests, "In a word, care. Employers who [take] steps to create environments where associates feel safe, valued, and more empowered to make their own scheduling choices stand a great chance of keeping these employees. And when I say environment, I'm not talking about bean bags and ping-pong tables." Is it really possible to create a team that feels empowered, inspired, and valued in the midst of a pandemic? In this interactive discussion, we'll review what's needed to foster trust and belonging at the individual and team level and identify what often gets in the way. We'll also practice a few skills to help leaders and managers adapt in the current environment and build more resilient teams. Featured Speaker: Marc McCann, Founder & CEO, Steo Outside
