CPDSO WEBINAR: Engaging Employees by Enabling Healthy Conflict in the Workplace

In today’s complex world:

• The latest Gallup Workplace Engagement report shows workplace engagement is currently at 23% globally, and Europe scores the lowest at 13%. Stress levels are on the up.
• The WEF Future of Jobs report shows Creative and Analytical Thinking as the top 2 skills for now and the future, ahead of AI and tech literacy.

So, to survive and thrive in this complex world we need to think differently. And to do that organisations need to engage their employees. But due to a lack of psychological safety and a breakdown in trust, we are seeing a reduction in healthy conflict – which reduces innovation and evolution.

This is not a sustainable model and organisations must resolve this major issue. But how? This workshop will show you some tools and techniques that you can start using right away and start making a real difference in your workplace, helping you restore the lost art of contradiction.
