ON-DEMAND WEBINAR : Listening & Leading Webinar Series (Presented by Capital One)
How Furloughs & Layoffs Have Impacted Our Profession
Original Date: Thursday, April 1, 2021
The panelists and moderator all personally were affected by either facing a furlough or layoff during the COVID pandemic and they talk about strategies used and lessons learned — and how they are applying those experiences and challenges to their jobs today and advocating for themselves and their staffs, finding ways to navigate and work through the stressors facing us today.
These four CoSIDA members either jumped into new athletic communications leadership roles during the pandemic or dealt with being furloughed, and what challenges they faced during the furlough and then - what challenges they are facing now upon returning to their positions.
Make sure to listen to this frank conversation on working in the pandemic, mental health issues we all face, and much more.
