SUMMARY:Accomplishment-Based Talent Development: Focus on Employee's Valuable Contributions
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn about the origin and evolution of accomplishment-based performance improvement\, based on the work of Thomas F. Gilbert in his groundbreaking book\, Human Competence: Engineering Worthy Performance. A focus on accomplishments – the valuable products of people’s behavior – differs from traditional approaches to talent management that focus on skills\, knowledge\, behavior\, or competencies. An accomplishment-based approach can drive more effective and measurable strategies and tactics for improving organizational and individual performance. You’ll learn about an end-to-end accomplishment-based talent development model for hiring\, onboarding\, coaching\, training\, and continuous development that improves our ability to define and measure performance and connects people’s daily work to the success of the organization. \n\n\n\nAttendees will learn\n\n\n\n\n\nThe origins of accomplishment-based performance improvement.\nHow to describe the valuable accomplishments that employees make to their organizations.\nThe clear distinction between accomplishments and behavior for producing them.\nHow accomplishments enable managers to connect their employees to organizational results.\nHow a focus on accomplishments can strengthen each stage of the talent development lifecycle.\nThe impact of collaborative accomplishment-based coaching on continuous talent development.

SUMMARY:Kindness at Work: Creating a Supportive Workplace Culture
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\nIn a dynamic workplace culture\, kindness may seem more like a “nice to have” than a need. Employee engagement and retention are critical for organizations of all sizes\, and in light of evolving work practices that have given employees more options\, values like compassion\, understanding\, and respect are more important than ever. \nRecent research by the NIH indicates that today’s effective leaders must be more “person-focused” and able to work well with people from various teams\, departments\, countries\, cultures\, and backgrounds. We believe that in the years to come\, this will become even more important as leadership can – and should – adapt to our shifting global environment. \nFortunately\, kindness in the workplace requires a skillset that can be taught. It plays a key part in emotional intelligence and leadership effectiveness. Kinder interactions among leaders and employees can lead to more effective communication\, which can drive positive organizational outcomes. Through activities and facilitated discussion\, the experience will encourage your team to create a kind workplace by encouraging a deep understanding of kindness and what it would look like at work. \n\n\n\nAttendees will learn\n\n\n\n\n\nThe benefits of kindness in the workplace.\nHow organizations can encourage kindness in the workplace.\nHow to improve your leaders’ ability to show kindness\, empathy\, and compassion.\nWhy kindness is an especially important skill for managers at all levels.\nNew ideas about creating a kind workplace culture.\nHow to increase the agency and responsibility of the team.\nHow to increase the resilience and flexibility of the team.\n\nPresenter\nDevin C. Hughes is an award-winning speaker\, best-selling author\, and internationally recognized expert in the science of happiness\, organizational/culture change\, and leadership development. He has lectured and worked with a variety of Fortune 100 companies\, as well as the Secret Service\, the IRS\, and an assortment of profit and nonprofit organizations. Devin is the author of 20 books and has lectured in more than 15 countries. He lives in San Diego\, California\, with his wife\, four daughters\, and two rescue dogs.

SUMMARY:The Next Frontier of Emotional Intelligence: Rewiring the Brain
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\nThe lack of emotional intelligence (EI) is one of the biggest derailers of leadership and employee effectiveness (and a common headache for HR leaders). Thus\, emotional intelligence development is commonly a top priority in organizations. \nUnfortunately\, traditional emotional intelligence development efforts fall short of moving the needle on EI. This is because EI is commonly treated as a skill-based ability rather than what neuroscience is finding: EI is actually a neural-based ability. When EI is viewed as a neural-based ability\, we can better diagnose EI deficiencies and treat them in a manner that actually results in the improvement of EI. \nIn an insightful and engaging session\, Mike and Ryan are going to discuss the next frontier of EI thought leadership and development (the neuroscience behind EI) and help you make meaningful improvements in EI within your organization. \n\n\nAttendees will learn\n\n\n\n\n\nOf the vital importance of emotional intelligence.\nThe reason why traditional emotional intelligence development efforts are deficient.\nThat emotional intelligence is not a skills-based ability; it is a neural-based ability.\nThe common causes of diminished emotional intelligence.\nHow to help leaders and employees actually improve their emotional intelligence.\n\nPresenters\nRyan Gottfredson\, Ph.D.\, is a cutting-edge leadership development author\, researcher\, and consultant. He helps organizations vertically develop their leaders primarily through a focus on mindsets. Ryan is the Wall Street Journal and USA Today best-selling author of Success Mindsets: The Key to Unlocking Greater Success in Your Life\, Work\, & Leadership. He is the author of the upcoming book\, The Elevated Leader: Level Up Your Leadership Through Vertical Development. He is also a leadership professor at the College of Business and Economics at California State University-Fullerton. \nMike Skrypnek is a catalyst that ignites your passion to help you make a cosmic ripple. His role as a multiplier of entrepreneurial success extends through generations. Mike is an international bestseller of nine books\, including his most important and soon-to-be available\, UNLimited WORTH. He is a keynote speaker and sought-after business strategist who has shared his insights and wisdom with thousands of passionate\, purpose-driven entrepreneurs\, business leaders\, and executives. His coaching focuses on purpose at the intersection of personal\, professional\, and philanthropic development. \nMike lives\, loves\, and adventures with his wife and their two young adult children in the beautiful Sea-to-Sky corridor of British Columbia\, Canada. Please welcome the CEO of Grow Get Give Coaching and Founder of The UNLimited WORTH Project.
