In our work, we are called upon to be thoughtful and caring of others especially when others struggle. Within our ever-changing work world, the struggles others are managing can often be the same struggles we are managing. In this ongoing time of significant world and workplace change, we can find ourselves caring for others while also having to care for ourselves. This interactive program shares practical ideas and tools to have and use to help with managing the changing world we all now inhabit. While the changing world has provided opportunities for positive change, there are also losses and significant ongoing challenges.
This program focuses on capitalizing on our positives, so we can best care for ourselves while also caring for others. This program takes an identities-based, mental health and wellbeing focus. Being staff, faculty, or anyone who works in higher education and is called upon to help others can be challenging on a good day. This program provides navigation for the stormier days as we navigate the current times and beyond.
Participants will learn: How to capitalize on our positives; An identities-based, mental health and wellbeing focus;
Navigation for the stormier days in our lives; Practical ideas and tools to help with managing the changing world.
