Managing workplace stress, priorities and expectations

Neuroscience, mindsets, and belief systems. Meet Fiona Cullen, an elite athlete who is using the skills learnt in sport to train local government leaders.

The purpose of this webinar is to equip local government leaders and managers - or those looking to take on a local government management or leadership role - with new skills to manage competing priorities, and communicate effectively with your teams, drawing on the experience and skills of elite athletes!

This webinar will provide you with an understanding of the neuroscience behind limiting beliefs that Fiona believes are the primary cause of stress and conflict within teams.

Fiona will also share her insights about what causes conflict and stress amongst leaders and teams in local government, and give her guidance on how to set and assess priorities to effectively manage expectations.
