New Year! New Goals!
January 7, 2022
Happy 2022! The new year is a time for setting our goals and intentions for the next 12 months, and we want to help you do just that. Our Learning Center will set you up for business and career success and—SPOILER ALERT—we have five on-demand (FREE) courses that you can start today.
Cultural Competence – Cultural diversity is a modern-day reality in most workplaces. Cultural differences may show up in a variety of different ways and can, at times, cause misunderstandings or even conflict. This course helps us to give thought to how culture may manifest in our own workplace.
Enhance Your Listening Skills – This course will teach you the difference between hearing and listening, as well as explain common listening barriers. It shows the importance of hearing, understanding, remembering, interpreting, evaluating, and responding.
Understanding Your Leadership Style – This course focuses on understanding how to apply leadership for everyone. A leader in any position, whether a CEO or a temporary head of a small project, serves his or her co-workers, and the project as a whole, best by being aware of strengths, weaknesses, and proclivities that affect how one communicates and processes information.
Beyond Bias: How We Naturally Form Perceptions – Unconscious bias is a phenomenon that all humans engage as a mechanism to help explain and understand our surroundings. Unfortunately, it can inhibit our interactions and make us draw conclusions that are incorrect. Being able to recognize these biases, fully understand how we process information, and know strategies to avoid negative implications creates for a well-balanced work environment.
Communication Skills: Frankly Speaking – We know how important communication is and how your communication can make you or break you. Interpersonal communication is the primary supervisory skill you need to have to be successful.
