Abstract

We hear the word Stress everywhere today--commercials, front page of magazines, and the news. The word is used so much, we tend to ignore it.  While growing up, I don’t recall hearing the older generation talk about stress.  Not that it didn’t exist, it’s how it was handled.  Stress impacts the way we think, behave and communicate. According to a 2016 research paper, done by Eastern Kentucky University, Department of Occupational Safety,  stress costs US companies over 300 billion dollars each year.  Now that’s a project worth taking on. 

Learning Objectives

This session will look at the different techniques and steps that we can put into practice to reduce the impact of stress on our mental and physical being. 

  • Work life balance – what does that really mean to you
  • Meditation – there’s just too much noise
  • Activities to sharpen mind and body – I don’t have the time

Relate & Communicate: Building Bridges and Connecting with Others

Online

Abstract

Excellent interpersonal skills are the most powerful skills you can possess and building successful relationships requires more than a “meet them half-way” approach.  Banish this limited mindset, enjoy deeper relationships, and learn what it takes to inspire team members to deliver their best.

Miscommunication occurs when we overlook or ignore different styles. This program will show you how to recognize and respond to varying communication styles, especially critical within any collaborative environment. Not only will these modules help you professionally, but in your personal life, social gatherings, and everything in between.

Chapter members who take full advantage of this opportunity may earn up to four (4) Leadership PDUs that will be loaded in to your dashboard (if they have a PMP):
