"Our Sense of Belonging" during the COVID-19 Pandemic​

A Q&A discussion with Howard Ross, author of Our Sense of Belonging, and Peter Zeeb, President & CEO of Geosyntec, about the importance of understanding our need for belonging during the COVID-19 pandemic.

​

While our typical CEO Forum COVID-19 Impact webinars focus more on tactical and strategic business responses and decisions during this crisis, the mental, emotional, and psychological impacts on staff are equally, if not more, important for AEC industry leaders to be aware of and address.
