Last month, WSU-Rochester sponsored \u201cFostering Resiliency in the Middle,\u201d a two-part workshop with professional trainer Sandy Anderson to serve businesses and organizations navigating the challenges of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

Anderson helped the professionals in attendance begin to develop a framework to engage their people, strengthen their workplace cultures, focus on relevancy, and support solutions for sustainable outcomes. <\/p>\n

The discovery and naming of losses, gaps and gains in the middle of a challenge creates a space to leverage that learning for the greater good versus lose it and potentially lose team engagement as we do what we do\u2026 because we\u2019ve always done it that way.<\/p>\n

My hope is that participants left with relevant ideas and questions to facilitate crucial conversations in their organizations, or even their families, that can change what the other side of any challenge looks like.<\/p>\n

More than 20 local professionals participated in the workshops representing industries including healthcare, government, nonprofit, retail, hospitality, finance, and construction. One attendee shared, \u201cI found this workshop to be so re-affirming and supportive, and I learned a lot to apply in my life and work.\u201d<\/p>\n

The positive response to this local event has led to plans for more professional development workshops in Rochester focused on helping the business community continue to thrive through the pandemic and beyond.<\/p>\n
