On 15 August 2019, Mr Grant Bosnick, Managing Director of Yes (Your Empowering Solutions), gave a dynamic presentation on how we can manage ourselves better in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment. Mr Bosnick used real-life examples and fictional characters to illustrate how we can embrace change around us and develop resilience in our teams.

Participants discussed in small groups how uncertainty and ambiguity can create stress in us. Using the Yerkes-Dodson Law graph model, he explained that unhealthy levels of stress leads to dysfunctional teams.

Mr Bosnick pointed out that to better adapt to change, we need to have clarity of expectation in line with the change and learn to channel negative stress into positive stress.

Many thanks to Mr Bosnick for taking time to share his invaluable knowledge with fellow members and friends!
