The London HR Connection is delighted to welcome three highly experienced HR professionals to discuss the complex issue of supporting employees through traumatic change of all kinds, including bereavement, redundancy, divorce and any form of extreme change of circumstances at its event on Wednesday 15th July 2020.

We will look at ways to support your employees to better cope with extreme change. We will explore how change is a form of loss – whether that is suddenly losing something important and familiar, losing our sense of direction and purpose or the sense of loss we feel when change is extreme, ambiguous and out of our control. The Coronavirus pandemic is a classic example of this. We will discuss our experiences in how change can impact us – physically and emotionally, how change uniquely affects every individual and practical tips on how best to support yourself and others who are experiencing extreme change, including the application of these ideas in the context of organisation transformation and change.

Our panel will consist of:
