Abstract
History provides some good lessons for leaders of teams on how to rebound strongly from difficult times. COVID is a once in a lifetime event that impacts team culture, and will require teams to adapt and change. The ability for any team to successfully navigate an uncertain future comes down to a Leaders ability to Lead and Influence Team Culture. There are five attributes teams that respond well after a crisis have in common: 1.A mission-centred team who are committed to the mission and purpose of what the organisation stands for 2.A road map out of the crisis broken into three horizons - H1, H2, H3, that allows for sequenced thinking and an ability to reimagine and innovate for the future (as a team). 3.Leaders who are resilient and optimistic fueled by their ability to role model key essential behaviours and influence these with their front-line leaders. 4. A predisposition to challenge the status quo and pursue a commitment to operational excellence. An in-ability to let go of the past, not act or change will threaten their future 5. An ability to pivot quickly and urgently in an aligned and united manner to pursue or act on the inevitable risks or opportunities that arise. It is these themes that will be explored as case studies during the workshop. Participants will navigate what is inherently known by teams and leaders, and highlight some good practices for implementation and application.
