Ep 109 Managing in Uncertain Times | The Introverted Leader Series, Part 7

As Joanna is working more and more with introverted managers and leaders, Flourishing Introverts introduces a series of episodes devoted to leadership and management, and how as introverts, we need to approach those everyday responsibilities a little bit differently. Each week your host will explore a topic that challenges introverts, identify the root of any issues, and offer some potential options and solutions.   In this short but necessary episode, Joanna addresses the issue of management during times of uncertainty. With the ongoing pandemic and the current violence in eastern Europe, our people management skills are truly being tested.
