Grief and Loss in the Workplace During COVID-19: Best Practices and Strategies

This morning, I had the honor of co-presenting a timely webinar with Susan Retik called Grief and Loss in the Workplace During COVID-19: Best Practices and Strategies. Today’s session was attended by 365 members of the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) and the Massachusetts Municipal Human Resources Association. This included human resources leaders and town administrators. It was a great opportunity to speak with leaders about how to provide support, guidance, and psychological safety to their team members in a time of crisis. We especially loved this feedback from a participant: “This is truly the best webinar I’ve been on thus far. Thank you so very much for sharing your personal stories. These tips you have provided are spot on and more helpful than you realize.” 

 

SuperHERoes: Making “Stronger Together” a Reality at Work

Pillar’s Founder & CEO, Cindy Joyce, will be joining forces with Tamara Gardner, owner of Boldly Branded, to speak at the upcoming Lean In Boston event.  The topic will be SuperHERoes: Making “Stronger Together” a Reality at Work

Event Details: 

It’s powerful when women connect and support each other – that’s a fact. However, the reality is that there are a lot of circumstances that act as a barrier to the “stronger together” mentality, especially at work.

Join us for an interactive and engaging discussion on:

  • What gets in the way of women supporting each other in the workplace
  • How to be a supporter, not a competitor even in a “vulture culture”
  • Strategies to build a personal “SuperHERro” network of all ages you can lean on and contribute to
  • Tips for how to stay meaningfully connected

Join us!
