Josh Krichefski CEO of MediaCom on the importance of organisational resilience in uncertain times

Josh Krichefski CEO for EMEA and global COO at MediaCom spoke to REBA director Debi O'Donovan at REBA's Employee Wellbeing Congress about how return to work phase is an opportunity for organisations to rethink wellbeing and the employee experience in ways that respect individual differences.

Josh discussed the need for organisational resilience and leadership especially in this current time of uncertainty. 'Over the last six months we have seen accelerated change in how organisations run and communicate, how they structure themselves and I think that, as a business leader myself, a lot of the changes we were planning to make we have just accelerated. So in some ways it has been tough and painful doing this during a time of isolation and working from home, but the good news is we are setting ourselves up for success in the future."

He added: "Organisational resilience is about having the tools and ability to look after yourself in times of uncertainty and be comfortable in these situations and the businesses that succeed are those that are comfortable with uncertainty and continue to operate in times of difficulty."
