Session 5: Building Organizational Resilience and the Confidence to Lead [Open to all media professionals]
This session looks at best practices in managing sustainable businesses through media disruption. It then looks at the impact of confidence in the workplace, particularly on how it can have a positive - and negative - impact on performance.
Building Organizational Resilience
The Harvard Business Review report “The Confidence Gap” points to real issues regarding confidence in the newsroom. There are, however, real steps towards building confidence and, in turn, resilience. Confidence has a direct impact on performance and the ability to effect change.
For those returning to the workplace, doubting one’s skills and worries over how to juggle the demands of family and work are key inhibitors. This session offers valuable pointers to build confidence and promote resilience in the workplace.
