Webcast: The things we aren't talking about during COVID-19

Explore the impact the pandemic is having on life, work and our relationships
 

 

OISE Alumni & Friends Leadership Series

 

The ongoing pandemic has presented us with a tremendous paradigm shift. We are all adapting to a new reality, necessitating new coping strategies and adjusting to different behaviours.

In this webinar recording, we'll explore some of the impacts the pandemic is having on our human experience and consider how we might prepare for a "new normal" together.

We'll look at COVID-19 through a different lens by moving away from tactics and focusing on the existential experience – discomfort, ambiguity and confusion – as well as changes in perspective that may impact life, work and our relationships.

Watch the full webcast above.
