The Jolted Workforce: How Leaders Transform Disruption into Growth
In today’s turbulent world of work, careers are increasingly shaped not by long-term plans, but by jolts. Jolts are specific events, inside or outside the workplace, that stop us in our tracks and cause us to rethink our relationship with work. These moments don’t just reshape individual careers; they impact engagement, culture, and organizational success.
Drawing from his book Jolted and his expertise as an organizational psychologist, Dr. Anthony Klotz reveals why jolts are among the most overlooked forces in work today, and explains how leaders can turn them from risks into opportunities to create stronger, more adaptive organizations.
In an engaging and interactive session, Anthony explores the six types of jolts professionals encounter in their careers, why our instinctive reactions to jolts often undermine well-being and performance, and how leaders can respond to jolts in ways that foster resilience, growth, and retention. Audiences leave with practical strategies to navigate jolts in their own careers, and a roadmap to help their organizations thrive in a jolted world.
How Nature Can Energize Your Employees
Nearly every company is redesigning the ways that their employees work, with the goal of creating jobs that motivate high performance and enhance worker well-being.
Drawing from his research on work design, and why and how contact with the natural world energizes employees, organizational psychologist Anthony Klotz explains how companies can redesign work in ways that bring employees in closer contact with nature, and the benefits of doing so for workers, organizations, and the planet.
In an engaging and entertaining way, Anthony shows audiences examples of how companies are currently incorporating natural elements into employees’ work lives, and explains the science behind how these efforts affect how workers think, feel, and connect with others.
The talk leaves attendees inspired to build more nature into their own workdays, whether remote or in the office. Moreover, it gives them the knowledge of how to use nature to design jobs that energize employees and create a greener, more sustainable future of work.
