Topic: Curiosity and Connection: Your personal Advantage in an AI world

Abstract: 

In the busy, do more with less, dynamic environments where we work, one of the few places we have real control is how we show up and navigate challenges and chaos.  As automation and systems grow, increasingly, we need to lean into building human relationships.  In the land of spreadsheet aggregation, dashboards, and Ghant charts, we work alongside other people.  Our ability to connect is what gets things done.

As someone who started their engineering career to solve the world's problems with math and science, I’ve come full circle to see that is only a part of the equation.  While I love spreadsheets and flowcharts as much as the next person, it is developing the human element of life and leadership that is where the magic happens that fuels our motivation for our work and fosters positive, collaborative, and creative environments.
Join us if you're frustrated that your message isn’t getting through to your team or leadership and exhausted trying to engage and motivate people within the organization.

This session will give you the space to reflect on your current communication strategies and feedback systems, as well as provide tactical tools for empowering teams, mitigating conflict, building trust, and getting results.

Let’s address the underlying issues of connection and communication to keep your team moving forward and thriving through even the most difficult conversations.

Join us to:
Build awareness of patterns of ineffective communication
Learn methods for staying curious in challenging situations
Develop techniques fostering spaces for maximum creativity and collaboration, creating real solutions with high buy-in
