Thursday, December 1, 2022 12:30 – 1:30 pm EST Co-Host: DLA Piper LLP (US) By Live & Recorded Webcast         Register for this event View the invite Culture, Flexibility & the Future Workplace. Are you wrestling with how to design your workplace to maximize engagement, performance and connection while affording more flexibility to enable your colleagues to thrive? You’re not alone. Many are uncertain about the right mix of in-person and virtual work, whether to mandate anchor days and how to align schedules to make onsite time purposeful and additive. At this event, we welcome Stanford Graduate School of Business professor and author, Hayagreeva “Huggy” Rao, and work flexibility strategist, futurist and author, Cali Williams Yost, to share their wisdom on how to design today’s jobs and workplaces to give employees more freedom while also facilitating collaboration, training and relationship building. With probing questions posed by author and workplace expert Debbie Epstein Henry, we’ll delve into how to avoid the “quiet quitting” trend at your office and how to inculcate a strong culture and loyalty while giving your employees more autonomy. We’ll also explore how to enhance your presence online when you’re not in-person and what types of parameters and articulated expectations can create just the right balance to give both managers and employees the assurances and flexibility that they need.

The Lodge at Woodloch ~ Make your Ask a Give

While many of you may feel comfortable developing relationships, when it comes time to make an “Ask” — whatever that Ask may be — you often fall short. Yet not being able to ask — for that opportunity or introduction, for a volunteer or leadership role, or to be considered for a promotion or increased compensation — can significantly impede your success. At this session, you will learn how to master the art of the Ask. The trick? Listen and get to know a person’s needs, interests and challenges. The more you know, the greater your ability to help. Rather than frame your Ask as a favor, you will learn how you can be a resource. You will leave this session armed with action steps and inspiration to be generous and provide value while learning to Ask for what will propel you and others ahead. Learn more about this event
