Core Library Leaders and Managers Interest Group

This past week we had a lively conversation on a number of important topics:

• How to integrate team experiences with employees who have been in the org for decades vs new folks-especially if there is a merger of teams or changes to reporting structures
• Getting to know people at an individual level can help as can leading by example
• How can leadership provide stability in otherwise uncertain times
• How can people contribute ideas and feel valued
• Onboarding is really important in this instance
• Psychological safety is important to establish-one resource was listed
• Ensure there is a clear vision that folks can get excited about and connect to their own work
• Ask how people want to be recognized
• Ensure a multi-pronged internal communication strategy-email, newsletter, personal connections
• Leadership by visiting with folks informally 
• Resources discussed
• 5 Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace
• The world's most powerful leadership principle how to become a servant leader

Please join us for our next session which will take place during Core IG Week on March 4^th at 12pm CST. Event details will follow soon, thank you!
