The Return-to-Office Reality – Managing Tension, Trust, and Team Friction
As organizations navigate the return to office, many leaders are facing unexpected tension, misalignment, and rising team conflict. The shift back to in-person work has increased stress levels, and, in some cases, fueled team dysregulation and disruption. But these challenges aren’t just about policy changes—they're about how teams adapt, regulate stress, and rebuild in a shifting workplace environment.
In this webinar, we’ll explore:
-
The Science of Team Disruption – Why returning to the office has triggered higher levels of stress, friction, and disengagement.
-
Nervous System Regulation & Workplace Tension – How unspoken stressors and uncertainty fuel conflict, and what leaders can do to stabilize team dynamics.
-
De-escalating Conflict & Resetting Team Norms – How to redefine expectations, improve communication, and foster resilience during workplace transitions.
This session is designed for leaders and HR professionals looking for actionable tools to reduce workplace tension and restore team effectiveness. You’ll leave with concrete strategies to address disruption, enhance communication, and create a more regulated, high-performing team environment—even amid ongoing change.
