- share insights into how to promote resilience.
Marcus speaking at the IWFM Conference 2019
COVID-19 gives leaders a chance to nurture agility, develop entrepreneurial thinking, and reset the culture in their business. It’s a moment to: role model the true values; find new high performers; and galvanise teams into new ways of working.
We can seize this opportunity to exemplify composure and lead with deliberate calmness, grace and kindness. If we serve our people, customers and communities well, we can win fresh levels of engagement and respect - foundations for better business in the medium and long term.
