Breaking Through to Flow

The key to high performing teams is the level of trust the team members have for the person leading them. In fact, team members who trust their leader are on average 2.3 times more engaged than those who don't. Employee engagement is impacted significantly by the level of trust that exists in a team which is why understanding the power of trust, how to build, and rebuild it when it has been damaged are so critical for organizational success.

Sometimes, despite our best efforts, our organizations are hit with crises. One of the biggest mistakes leaders make in dealing with these crises, regardless of the type of crisis, is focusing on the very tempting approach of "getting back to normal". While there are few upsides to crises, one thing they do provide is an opportunity to change or get rid of bad practices that had emerged over time but were not addressed previously because we often resist change generally, and especially changes that might cause upset amongst key members of the organization. This talk points out the most obvious places to look for improvements following a crisis and provides practical tips on how those areas can be addressed to strengthen your organization moving forward.   About Tim London Dr Tim London is the Founding Partner of Dwyer + London Consulting Previously, he held roles such as Head of Organisational Innovation and Senior Lecturer at the University of Cape Town's Graduate School of Business, Director of Programmes (University of Cambridge, Director of Education and Teaching Fellow (Queen’s University Belfast, and other roles in the educational space.
