Effective Leadership in Changing Times
Workplace Application: This session will provide simple yet powerful strategies to help you understand the typical individual responses to change events, gain clarity on the three stages of organizational change and your role in each stage and avoid barriers leaders create.
The ability to respond to the rapid pace of changing events is becoming a key competitive advantage for organizations today. Ensuring that the organization is building a core competency in leading change is a powerful method by which you can add real value to the bottom line. In this program Cy will show you how fast-paced organizations can thrive in challenging times as they break through “learned helplessness” and rally their teams to respond to challenges while maintaining 100% accountability.

Engaging Employees, Despite the Obstacles: HR’s Pending Challenge (and Strategic Opportunity)
Workplace Application: This session reviews the economic, demographic and organizational factors that contribute to employee dis-engagement, and offers a best-practice model for re-engaging your workforce, despite the obstacles.
Senior executives increasingly cite employee engagement as an organizational priority. Yet a perfect storm of factors - the workforce shift from Baby Boomers to Gen X/Y, reductions in pay, benefits and other aspects of the “employment contract” and effects of economic decisions such as layoffs threaten to erode engagement. Despite these obstacles, you can take the lead in re-engaging even a skeptical workforce. This session will offer a model based on extensive employee research and best-practice examples.
Presenter: Alison Davis, Founder & CEO, Davis & Company, Glen Rock, N.J.
