Alex Berke on LinkedIn Live: Running the Return-to-Work Marathon

         

While September usually means going back to school, for a lot of working folks and business owners, it means going back to the office. The transition might be a welcome relief or a moment of dread for you—either way, it’s hard to deny a lot has changed in this country and the world. Communities, laws, relationships, and beliefs have shifted immensely over the past year and a half, and we will be feeling the impacts of this for a long time.

Ivy Slater, a business coach, speaker, and author, was joined by Senior Associate Alex Berke and Dr. Melba Nicholson Sullivan in a LinkedIn Live session of her “Slater Success Live” about running the return-to-work marathon. While Alex touches on the legal aspects of this transition, Dr.  Sullivan—speaker, licensed clinical-community psychologist, executive coach, and performing artist—speaks to the impact the pandemic has had on people’s experiences relating to one another, about community, communication, and how those play out at work.
