Wednesday, February 24, 10:30 a.m.-Noon
Webinar
 

When facing a disaster like the COVID-19 pandemic, most people remain in stages 1-4 of the 6 stages of crisis response. This is normal and instinctive as our field of vision becomes restricted and we protect what is closest to us. But every crisis is a catalyst for innovation, creativity, and advancement. As a city leader, it is important to be in stages 5 and 6 where you can thrive in adversity, and create opportunities for your residents and community. 

In this engaging and entertaining webinar, Commander Mary Kelly, Ph.D. will discuss the six stages of crisis response, followed by the five ways to pivot your team and organization to embrace change and turn disruption into evolution.  She will also present tips for effective leadership, and build in time for audience questions.
