EANE Free Speaker Series Event
Why Work Doesn’t Work Anymore and What Leaders Must Do Now
Work has changed — and leaders need to change with it. Dr. Scott Cawood, CEO of World at Work reveals what’s no longer working in today’s workplace and the practical steps leaders can take to meet rising expectations and keep employees engaged.
In this session, Dr. Scott Cawood, CEO of WorldatWork, will explore how the fundamental construct of work has shifted and why organizations are struggling to keep up.
Through a practical and thought-provoking lens, Scott will unpack how speed of business, decision-making, technology, and employee expectations is reshaping the employee/employer exchange. From pay and PTO to benefits and total rewards, long-standing approaches are being tested in real time, often faster than organizations are prepared to respond.
Beyond programs and policies, Scott will challenge us to examine the credibility of leadership in today’s workplace. As trust becomes a defining currency of work, the impact and cost of poor leadership has never been higher. The “bad boss” is no longer a tolerable risk; it is a direct threat to engagement, retention, and performance.
Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of:
How and why the meaning of work has fundamentally changed
The impact of speed on total rewards, flexibility, and workforce expectations
Why leadership credibility is now a core business and people strategy
The real organizational cost of ineffective leadership and how HR can influence change
This 45-minute virtual session will be followed by 15 minutes of live Q&A, offering participants the opportunity to engage directly with Dr. Scott Cawood on the challenges shaping the future of work.
This event can be opened to all members and non-members and is free attend.
