Let’s Communicate – Better!

Most of us have heard of the golden rule – Do onto others as you would have them do onto you – but in today’s world that is not good enough. We need to treat people the way THEY want to be treated. There are a lot of tools out there to assess personality types, and those help us understand how the other person wants to be treated. Most of those tools, though, require an assessment and specialized training to interpret the assessment. What we need is a quick way to understand what is important to someone and leverage that understanding to improve our communication, treating people the way they want to be treated. This event discusses just such a tool to quickly identify what is important to an individual and use that knowledge to improve our communication. Learn how the different personality types interact, what conflicts can commonly occur, and how we can use this knowledge to build more effective teams.

Cybersecurity and How to Address Risks Through the Pandemic

The pandemic has forced many companies to an all-remote or partial-remote working environment, which increases the risks of cyber-attacks on companies. Is your organization equipped to handle these types of attacks? Identifying risks and threats that are relevant to your organization is important to understand to identify controls required to protect your organization. Additionally, employees have an impact on keeping your organization secure and should be considered your front line of defense. In this presentation, Scott Petree, Partner at Plante Moran, will discuss recent high profile cyber-attacks, as well as what your organization can do to identify if you have the appropriate safeguards in place to reduce risk related to these attacks, as well as basic cyber controls that your users can contribute to your organizations overall cybersecurity posture.

Being Resilient in the Midst of Change, Growth & Uncertainty
If we’ve learned anything from 2020, it is that change and responding rather than feeling reactive (or being paralyzed) to uncertainty is inevitable and necessary for growth. Change can be very emotional and even painful for individuals and teams. Constant change has resulted in unprecedented levels of anxiety and depression for the majority of us. Whether we’re dealing with family or health challenges, navigating a pandemic, merger, acquisition, downsizing, restructuring, or even simply new leadership, change happens. And yet when change happens, it can throw our personal life and our work life into chaos. Working from home or not, there's no separation between "work and home" because we bring our "human" to work. In order to recover fully, bounce back quickly, essentially be more resilient, you must take action. Christina Haxton from The Center for Sustainable Strategies shares three practical strategies you can use immediately to shift into a “resilient mindset'', which you can in turn share with your family, colleagues and your team so you can weather the next storm successfully together.
