**When the path forward isn’t clear, how do you keep your team moving in the same direction?**

Shifting priorities. Changing expectations. Unclear roles. Competing demands.

For leaders, uncertainty can quickly turn into confusion—and when people don’t have clarity, they often fill in the gaps themselves.

Join **Kirkwood Corporate Training** for our upcoming FREE webinar:

📅 **October 13, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. CST**
💻 **Leading Through Uncertainty**
🎤 **Dr. Celina Peerman, Ph.D., SHRM-SCP, CSP**

In this practical session, Dr. Peerman will explore how leaders can effectively navigate the “in-between”—the space between what was and what’s next.

You’ll walk away with strategies to:

✔️ Create clarity even when all the answers aren’t available
✔️ Keep teams aligned and moving forward
✔️ Communicate effectively during uncertainty
✔️ Reinforce shared purpose and reduce siloed thinking

You may not be able to eliminate uncertainty—but you can learn to lead through it.
