Offered by ASPE (REP 2161) 1 Category A PDU – Free PDU

Nearly 60% of companies face a leadership talent shortage which impedes their performance.

There is a very big difference between a leader and a good leader. There is a HUGE difference between a good leader and a great leader. No matter what, leadership involves preparing, improving, and growing your skills continuously.

What worked leading your team, group, department or company this year could very well be completely ineffective next year.

Due to myths and misperceptions, leadership is the most misunderstood business concept.While numerous theories and styles exist, the key is developing your own leadership style rooted in leadership practices but based on your own fundamental principles.

In order to do this you have to understand what leadership styles are available, how they work, and which would best apply to you.

In this web seminar you will:

  • Identify the most common leadership theories
  • Learn best practices of successful leaders
  • Identify how to use power bases effectively in work situations
  • Discover how to build trust and encourage teamwork

Duration: 1 Hour 1  Category C  PDU – Free PDU

An ROH?
(Return On Happiness)

How can we achieve the same ROH (Return on Happiness) that other organizations experience?

Research featured in Harvard Business Review show improvements in happiness and well being associated with positive outcomes in employee engagement (up to 10x more engaged) and higher levels of sales (37% average increase across multiple studies).

Social support was shown to improve not only levels of employee satisfaction – but also lead to improvements in customer loyalty and industry service metrics.

We have learned that re-training our brains to become more positive, more adaptive and more resilient in order to gain a competitive advantage at work is not only possible, it is essential in rapidly changing environments.

While there are many exciting possibilities on the horizon to assist organizations in creating a new, happy culture for their employees, the most promising approach is to focus in on how we do business each day.

By targeting our most important work routines and embedding more positivity into them, we move beyond “talking about happiness” and into making it a generative, powerful force at work.

In this third of a 3-part webinar series on The Happiness Advantage at Work, Devin Hughes, Chief Inspiration Officer at International Thought Leader Network (training and research partner with Harvard happiness researcher and internationally best-selling author Shawn Achor), talks to Mark Eggerding, Vice President at US Foods, about the daily practices and work routines necessary for organizations and their managers to lead positive change.

You’ll learn:

  • The leader’s role in defining happiness as a business strategy
  • What visible actions can be taken can successfully address damaging social scripts and the re-writing of new one’s aligned with positive work environments and business outcomes
  • How to embed individual and organizational work routines with positive practices to create positive emotional experiences at work
  • How to create space, structure and necessary time commitments for happiness to live, especially for new teams

Bonus: The first 100 participants requesting will receive a new release copy of Broadcasting Happiness by Michelle Gielan, Founder of the Institute for Applied Positive Research, and an expert on the science of positive communication and how to use it to fuel success.

Presented by: Solutions Cube Group (REP 2451)

Many Project Managers and team members are required to use Microsoft Project to plan and manage their project efforts. But, they often lack needed training to use the product effectively.

Solutions Cube Group, in collaboration with 6D Tech Inc, is offering this accelerated webinar designed to help Project Managers learn the not so basic basics to create a Project Schedule, including task dependencies, as well as resource assignments using Microsoft Project.

During the webinar, we will discuss some of the new features now available in Microsoft Office Project designed to help you build a better schedule by understanding the drivers for the tasks in your project (e.g. What impacts my tasks?).

After taking this course students will be able to develop more robust project schedules as they take the concepts taught and apply them immediately on current or new projects.

In the Using Microsoft Project webinar, participants will learn:

  • How to set up a Project – the correct way including calendar setup and use of the most common project options
  • How to use multiple undo functions to correct inadvertent mistakes or perform “what-if” scenarios •How to create a WBS with tasks and milestones
  • How to link dependencies to tasks understanding the reasons why and impacts of doing so
  • The difference between Duration and Work and its impact on the Project Schedule
  • How to assign resources to tasks
  • How to format and print Project Plans using highlighting capabilities to create an impact

Solutions Cube Group courses successfully close the gap between Project Management theory and practical application of implementing this theory through the use of time tested tools and techniques and experiential learning opportunities.

Course Agenda:

  • Setting up a Project
  • Assigning Resources
  • Entering Tasks
  • Formatting and Printing Project Plans
  • Linking Tasks and Setting up Dependencies
