People are the backbone and engine that support and make seniors’ care run, yet staffing shortages and burnout are just some of the challenges that can make a workforce feel like it’s running on empty.

This daylong workshop is a chance to refill your organization’s cup with fresh ideas, a deeper understanding of workplace dynamics and practical strategies to build and sustain your teams as well as the relationships that hold them together.

Hear the latest thinking and approaches from a range of experts on key health human resources (HHR) topics as they apply to seniors’ care, including culture change, team building, conflict resolution, psychological health and safety, labour relations and effective recruitment and retention strategies.

Sign up for this unique learning opportunity to enhance your knowledge about:

• Healthy vs. unhealthy workplace culture and how to achieve culture change

• Strategies for staff engagement, recognition and embedding organizational values into daily leadership practice
  
• Handling conflict resolution and difficult conversations
  
• Navigating collective agreement complexities, grievance and disputes, and fostering constructive relationships with union representatives
  
• Reducing psychological harm and promoting a culture of wellbeing
