How do leaders “keep it real” under pressure? How do they handle stress when change and adversity strike? In this enlightening webinar, award-winning executive coach and author of sixteen books, John Baldoni, describes three things leaders must do when change and adversity strike:

  • Take Care of Your Team (Adversity, Stress, Resilience, Affirmation)
  • Take Care of Yourself (Make This Your Finest Hour!)
  • Prepare for What’s Next (Capitalize on the Crisis)

In his most recent book, “Grace Under Pressure: Leading Through Change and Crisis,” John reveals that leaders must do all of these things with a sense of grace  – calmly, collectedly, and compassionately. In this webinar, John will demonstrate how leaders use the concept of grace to help us learn, grow and fulfill the “greater good.”
