Ask the Right Questions
As schools and organizations across the country prepare to re-open, it won’t be business as usual. Safety will be front and center. While learning remains a priority, the safety, health, and well-being of students, teachers, and staff will be just as important. So what will it take to successfully transition back into schools after COVID-19? In this episode, Sabrina Hebeler—Chief of Staff with Infrastructure Planning and Facilities at Michigan State University—explains how asking the right questions to the right people has been an important key—not only in the university’s successful transition to virtual—but in getting ready for a very different fall semester.
This episode addresses questions, such as:
- How can organizations learn from this pandemic to prepare for a successful Fall 2020 semester?
- What steps can leaders take now to prepare for making schools and campuses safe and healthy learning environments this fall?
- How can leaders effectively communicate changes for the fall semester?
