Leadership Series: Managing in Times of Crisis

Using the coronavirus pandemic as a framework, the critical role of the leader in managing chaos, complexity and uncertainty is explored. Important behaviors such as staying calm and focused, delivering honest, fact-based communication, being visible and available to staff, and setting short term goals are discussed.

Leadership Series: Creating a Culture of Respect and High Performance

Incivility in the workplace spans a broad spectrum from low intensity deviant behavior to outright bullying and harassment. In this session, we explore reasons why this problem may occur, what ill effects are created when the workplace is not safe and healthy, and the effects of deviant behavior on patient care, staff morale and organizational resources. We discuss why a zero tolerance policy is the desired strategy for managing incivil behavior, how leaders can learn to address incivility and what supports are helpful to them in doing so.
