Navigating the uncertain
Dealing with ambiguity
Being comfortable and confident in times of ambiguity and uncertainty is a skill that will pay off many times over for leaders and managers. Dealing with change makes many uncomfortable – but there are tools, techniques and approaches you can use to become more confident when navigating the uncertain.
From learning about situations you can and can’t control to confident decision-making and effective communication, having a core toolkit for navigating the uncertain is an essential skill.
Workshop delivery
Navigating the uncertain is a 3-hour workshop that can be delivered virtually or face-to-face by an expert facilitator for a group of up to 16 participants.
Times of change can be difficult for leaders and their teams in equal measure. This workshop provides participants with an insight into their strengths and areas for development, as well as how to support their teams during uncertainty. Using real-life situations, participants discuss how they felt and their responses and what could be done differently in the future to get a better result.
We measure the impact of this workshop through an immediate evaluation, giving you confidence about the return on your investment. The relationships and learning community built between participants during the workshop fosters peer support, engagement and ongoing personal development.
