Understanding the Path to Thriving in a Post-Pandemic World: Part 2

Gagen MacDonald has been publishing their ongoing series, “The Path to Thriving in a Post-Pandemic World,” and have learned a great deal through research and working directly with clients. As a society, we know COVID-19 will impact business for a long time to come; that social distancing measures will remain for the foreseeable future; that the “old normal” is gone for good; and that the “re-entry” to the workplace will happen slowly, unevenly and in waves. As these realities have set in, leading companies are shifting their focus to establishing a “New Normal” and ask, “what does this mean for business leaders?” Join Maril MacDonald, Founder & CEO of Gagen MacDonald, and Patricia Bayerlein, Executive Director, for a second webinar to discuss the actions we can take now to create a sense of strategic proactivity, build confidence, and generate a sense of momentum.
