Building Workforce Resilience Amidst Permacrisis

There’s no avoiding it – we operate in a tumultuous world.  Regional conflict.  Global instability.  Political violence.  Weather crises.  Severe travel disruptions.  The constant barrage of critical incidents puts an enormous strain on organizations and their people…at home, and when they’re on the road.

Our speaker will highlight some of the prevailing concerns of travel and risk executives, demonstrate how resilient organizations support travelers amidst the permacrisis, and describe the response required when travelers encounter critical incidents.  Join us as we dive into actionable insights to help you prepare for what lies ahead.
