Respect For People And The Importance Of An Emotionally Safe Environment

CEOs tell us one of their biggest concerns is their organization’s ability to implement change. Part of the reason is that there is an elephant in the room at every company.  Its name is 𝑮𝑹𝑰𝑬𝑭, and very few leaders are prepared to acknowledge it, let alone trained to deal with it.

Lean Horizons president and architect of the Danaher Business System, Mark DeLuzio, sponsored a 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘗𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 webinar series featuring 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 ™ co-founder Anthony Casablanca.

Based on principles from the book 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘋𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱, the webinar series focuses on helping leaders and companies navigate the trauma caused by organizational or personal change.

Any emotionally traumatic event significant enough to cause a shift in a person’s reality will cause that person to grieve.

Whether the event is personal, a significant illness diagnosis, for example, or organizational, your company announces a significant restructuring; grief presents itself and causes performance issues.

Studies have shown the impact is undeniable.  Here are some of the facts.

1 in 4 people are grieving every day.

Grief in the workplace costs US companies $100 Billion annual in lost productivity

Employee burnout from stresses/trauma in the workplace results in an estimated $200 Billion in annual healthcare costs that companies bear.

Emotionally traumatized, grieving, burned-out employees are 60% more likely to take sick days and 2 ½ times more likely to leave an organization.

In this 𝘙𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘗𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 webinar, Mark and Anthony discuss why creating an emotionally safe environment is vitally important to demonstrating true respect for people and how it links to effective change management.
