Webinar: Planning and Managing in Uncertainty

Does it ever feel like you’ve been cast in one of those insurance commercials where mayhem runs amuck? We have. We all have. Floods, fires, storms, earthquakes, and now pandemic(s)—there are many ways a project can come off the rails. How do we prepare for uncertainty? How do we meet disruption head-on? In a crisis, the best approach builds on mutual trust—where all the parties work together towards a solution. Our panel of agents and presenters will guide us to that end with honest, frank, and constructive stories of overcoming mayhem. Join us for inspiration, examples of collective creative problem solving and resilience, and maybe even a laugh.
