16 February Webinar: Let’s Keep it Real about Wellbeing in the Workplace

Register here

It’s no joke: Our events industry professionals have been under extreme, prolonged stress. First, it was COVID-19 and its many bumps. Now we are running at an even faster pace, often with fewer resources, to make it all happen with the return of live events. 

In response to the impact of COVID-19, EIC formed the APEX COVID-19 Business Recovery Task Force. The task force work groups focused on aggregating and curating accepted practices across the events ecosystem and providing a framework for recovery and resilience as the industry adapted to its most significant disruption. As part of this work, in 2020, EIC published the "Resources for Workforce and Wellness" guide to help support industry professionals with their own wellbeing and to help navigate the COVID storm professionally. This useful resource remains relevant and provides great resources for all areas of your wellbeing.

When we launched the guide, the Wellbeing and Workplace working group hosted a webinar to candidly connect with industry professionals about their own wellbeing. Let’s keep that conversation going. In this webinar, we will discuss where we are now as professionals on our wellbeing journey and will share tips on how to kick off the New Year with a focus on your own wellbeing.

What
A free webinar where you will learn about:

• Setting expectations and boundaries with your clients to protect your own wellbeing
• Understanding how you can make changes in your own wellbeing and prioritise yourself
• Finding balance when attending industry events
• Battling post event burn out
• Gaining tips and tricks to improve your health

Why
As flight attendants tell us on an airplane, you must put on your own mask before assisting others. The same holds true for wellness. We need to look after ourselves before we can be there for others – personally or professionally. So let’s take this time together to focus on wellbeing in 2023.
