Dr. Megan J. Shen is a social psychologist and research professor at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. Her writing, research and speaking focus on how we can find hope and resilience through the changes, challenges, pain and losses in life and within our organizations.
The reality is that life happens to us all – people get sick, medical issues come up, we have children or aging parents to care for, and we leave jobs.
Being a hopeful leader and moving forward with a clear vision can make your team's and company's future better and give you some ideas on how to do it.
Communication can go a long way in creating trust, stability and vision in an organization's very unstable time of grief. This will, in turn, improve the company's bottom line as well.
