Managing Through Change Series:  Strategies, Insights and Tools To Support the Return to Campus, New Initiatives and Innovation

The pandemic has plunged virtually all organizations, businesses, leaders and employees into a position of managing through change and thinking about how to contribute to and/or support decisions about what comes next.  Having to work from home, or working on location during the height of the pandemic, was indeed challenging for so many. Returning to the workplace is going to have its own unique challenges.  Very little will be the same as we seek to effectively and safely respond to a new environment, new requirements, and diverse needs. In partnership with CCS and respected external partners, we are offering a series of sessions that cover various aspects of change and provide you with helpful insight, tools and/or strategies that you can use to communicate, engage, innovate, collaborate, or simply operate day to day.  There are sessions for administrative and academic leaders, for project managers and for staff.  Whatever you need for a change, we have something that may help you through it.

NEW Days

Another exciting initiative is the NEW @ the U program, which is the University of Guelph's customized New Employee Welcome (NEW) program!  Check out the NEW @ the U section of our program guide, and browse the Human Resources website section dedicated to the NEW @ the U program.

The University is committed to human rights and employment equity.
