2:30pmMotivating and Engaging Employees in a Climate of Change
Gary Campbell, President, Impact2Lead, LLC & CEO, Johnson Health Center

When the pandemic hit in early 2020, organizations mobilized and revolutionized the way work was delivered during that first 3-6 months. In many ways, it brought a degree of excitement and a certain adrenaline rush never seen before. It opened up a new world of innovation and began to drive curiosity at different levels. As the pandemic wore on, the infatuation with the new world of work gave way to a more somber tone of helplessness and wondering when it would all go back to normal.  Fast forward to now, we live in a changed world where the adverse effects of the nearly three years of COVID will likely be felt for years to come. The workplace is forever changed with burnout and disengagement dominating a variety of social media platforms and putting pressure on companies to have an answer. Those who put culture transformation first through people strategies and leadership development will be the ones who prevail successfully.

In this interactive session, participants will hear from a CEO who leveraged the company’s core value system that allowed for seamless and successful transition through the pandemic and establish new means of communication, innovation and the unleashing of potential and engagement at all levels.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Participants will learn how important it is to deeply understand and act upon the needs of a multi-generational workforce that has different expectations now vs. pre-pandemic.

  2. They will learn the steps it takes to create a values centered environment and make it sustainable and why this is so important.

  3. They will hear how one organization used the pandemic to create greater visibility, communication and innovation on the way to historic growth, greater community impact and an intentional focus on employee motivation and engagement.
