ANZSOG
"Leading is never easy, but COVID-19 has required many public managers to juggle responding to a fast-moving crisis, implementing working from home, and building a whole new set of collaborations with other agencies.
How can managers adapt their leadership style to not just cope with disruption, but make it an agent for positive long-term change?
Jo Cribb spent two decades in the New Zealand public service, most recently as Chief Executive of the Ministry for Women, and says she was “lucky enough” to work on tough issues like child poverty and violence against women, before leaving three years ago to run her own business.
She will present Leading people through disruption, a series of three webinars for ANZSOG in August/September that will give participants insights into how to make decisions during a time of crisis and maintain an inclusive and positive style of leadership.
Dr Cribb said that organisations should embrace an empowering style of leadership during the pandemic and ensure they maintained diversity and inclusion programs to help them adjust effectively to the crisis and its aftermath.
