• Five New Work From Home Models That Might Stick  
  We have been surveying leaders and they are telling us they believe 75% of organizations will not go back to the same "work from the office" rules. We have identified five different options for moving to a partial or modified Work From Home (WFH) model.
  
  In this talk, Scott reviews the possibilities and the return on investment for moving to a more permanent WFH paradigm for your team members. There are advantages and disadvantages to this work model so it is valuable to gain as much perspective as possible before the discussion gets too far down the road.

  Every crisis in the past 100 years has irrevocably changed life in the U.S. The pandemic of 2020 will be no different. In this talk, Scott reviews fifteen different areas of our lives and the economy that will never go back to exactly what they were before. This information will help you with future planning and adjusting your business strategy.
  
  This presentation has constant polling integrated so the audience is sharing their thoughts throughout - making for a highly interactive and informative session. 
• The Great Reset: Lessons Learned & Preparing for Next Time  
  One of the best ways to create value from a crisis is to be very conscious of what can be learned from the experience. We have all been provided new insights into WFH models, technology, preparedness, and risk control. In addition, the clock is ticking towards the next emergency WFH event or pandemic so it is critical to take what we have learned and make the needed adjustments to be better prepared next time.
  
  Successful leaders (and organizations) often make more progress in a down market than in a rising one. Scott will walk you through interesting lessons we should all be learning as well as how to get prepared for the next crisis – all with a digital overlay. He will also provide his formula for gaining ground during the rest of 2020.
  
  As a bonus, this presentation will come with a sample playbook (PDF) for handling an emergency work from home event.
