LAS VEGAS - October 6, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
LXbD welcomes positive psychology experts Dr. Elia Gourgouris and Konstantinos Apostolopoulos (Coach Kon) to its network of thought leaders. Together, Dr. Elia and Coach Kon have partnered to provide a practical guide to emotionally dealing with pandemics and other disasters in their two-part learning experience 7 Keys to Navigating a Crisis, which is based on their book by the same title.
As Dr. Elia and Coach Kon explain, “Organizational and HR leaders across the world are noting their top priority is ensuring the mental and physical well-being of their employees and acknowledge that frontline leaders are the most important link to those employees. In this partnership with LXbD, we can provide a program that provides these leaders with the knowledge and proven practices they can apply immediately to embrace the necessary changes resulting from a dispersed workplace and remote workers. The difference between surviving and thriving for business in this time of uncertainty is its leader’s ability to navigate the mounting crises and engage employees to maintain their productivity and effectiveness. As employees adapt to the ‘new normal,’ the organization can better respond to shifting customer needs and business demands. The 7 Keys to Navigating a Crisis provides the roadmap to a better place.”
Shane Green, founder of Learning Experiences by Design (LXbD), says, “LXbD is committed to delivering frontline leaders the skills, training, and to-dos that will allow them to elevate the performance of their business or team, even in adverse conditions. Dr. Eli and Coach Kon have developed two virtual sessions that are relevant and important right now. We are excited to share their expertise and insights to our partners and the world.” LXbD is working with thought leaders from around the world to design and deliver learning experiences via their team of world-class facilitators and trainers, and these two authors serve as a prime addition to LXbD’s team.
LXbD is committed to bringing the most relevant and motivating learning experiences to organizations, specifically to frontline managers and supervisors. LXbD works with thought leaders and experts to develop learning experiences on-demand — meaning that they are available when they are most needed. Green says, “While there has been a tremendous push to do all training via technology, we know that a blend is required. So, while online training is on-demand and easily accessible, we wanted to do the same for live learning in partnership with some great human resources thought leaders.”

Barrier 11 no concern for Ka Ying Rising but wet weather worries David Hayes ahead of The Everest

Fifa president Infantino could pull off ‘Houdini’ act as critics struggle for candidate
Gianni Infantino could survive weeks of criticism and secure re-election as Fifa president in the absence of a heavy hitter to challenge him, observers have said. The 56-year-old Swiss has lost the support of many associations in his bid to be re-elected to a fourth and final term since he launched and then hastily shelved his plan to allow private investment into the World Cup. Infantino, though, does crucially retain his core support in Africa and South America. His Fifa Forward Enterprise...

Is the early season Happy Valley bias a ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’ as the debate rages on
There has been plenty of intrigue surrounding the early outside bias at Happy Valley this season, but is it simply a “self-fulfilling prophecy”, or is there a rhyme and reason to the current state of play? The early statistics suggest it is not a coincidence. We’ve had four meetings at the city circuit this season, with all the configurations of the rail being utilised, from the A track to the C+3 course, where the rail is pushed the furthest it can be from the inside. At the first three...

Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli said he was allowing himself to dream about a historic world title, which is within reach at the next race in Austin, Texas, after the 20-year-old sealed his 14th podium finish of the season at Sunday’s Singapore Grand Prix.
