January: Rebuilding Social Capital with an Inspired Teams Culture [01/12/23]

Rebuilding Social Capital by Building
and Nurturing an Inspired Teams Culture  

As we return to physical workplaces it’s clear that the pandemic has eroded connections among people. For this reason, many CEOs believe that the lack of serendipitous interactions has negatively impacted the social capital necessary for greater collaboration and innovation.  Yet most still prefer to work remotely, despite remote workers feeling more isolated.

So how might we navigate the tension between what CEOs want and workers’ desires?  Dr. Steven Wolff and Audrey Wyatt will lead an interactive discussion on the three dimensions of social capital: structural, cognitive, and relational.  We will also learn a systematic approach to rebuilding social capital in any environment, including remote, hybrid, or in-person, using the Inspired Teams Framework.  Finally, we will discover how building an Inspired Teams Culture directly produces psychological safety.

Please join us on January 12 as we kick off the new year with this timely discussion!
