Covid Fatigue has officially set in. Nearly one year after the first shelter-in-place orders came down, we are still dealing with social distancing, Zoom headaches, masks, and distance learning. And that’s if we are fortunate enough to have avoided contact with the virus, lost jobs, or at worst, lost loved ones to the pandemic. Add to this Texas ice storms, power outages, and the return of toilet paper hoarding, and you’ve got yourself the perfect recipe for a sharp decline in employee morale.
Those in leadership roles are faced with keeping up not only their own morale, but that of their respective teams as well. The results of a Vistage CEO Confidence Survey for the 4th quarter of 2020 showed that morale was a major concern for C-suite executives. To shed some insight on these challenges and how best to overcome them, Vistage has assembled a renown group of experts: Dr. Eve Meceda, Valerie Alexander, and David Friedman.
Check out the recent Vistage blog post on how leaders can address a historic decline in employee morale. Afterwards, check out the video on Managing Morale for Yourself and Your Team to cover all your bases.
