As OD practitioners, we are often faced with tough situations. We sometimes have to deliver less than favorable news to seniors leaders. Other times, we have to deal with conflict on our teams. And times like now, we have staff with burnout and stress from external events. In these situations, our finesse with people and skills as a facilitator can really come in handy. We can help teams unpack challenges and cast new narratives. In my experience with these types of challenges in tough times, I have had to be brave and measured. It’s definitely not easy, but my background in OD has helped me navigate my clients through these difficult conversations. I hope you have the patience and courage to help your teams navigate these tough times. Take a deep breath. You can do it!
