Three (3) Part Series: Beyond Mindfulness – Exploring Structural Opportunities for Change in the Workplace - Part 3
In this HR learning Series, participants will learn about different approaches to supporting and maintaining health and “resilience” in the workplace. In parts I and II of the learning series, a specific focus will be on moving beyond individualized understandings of health and resiliency towards examining how health and resiliency in the workplace is socially organized. In doing so, participants will develop a “structural competency” lens to issues in the workplace. In part III of the series, participants will collaborate to create a focused action plan, identifying one or two constructive strategies to enhance workplace well-being and support positive organizational change within the university.
*Please note this is a 3-part series, and you would need to register and attend all sessions as part 3 builds on part 1 and 2*
