Activity Description/Objective:
Without self‑aware employees, high‑performing teams, and a healthy organizational culture, challenges in communication, collaboration, productivity, and employee retention are inevitable. Meeting of the Minds empowers individuals to recognize and leverage their strengths, enabling them to reach their full potential. At the same time, it equips organizations with the tools needed to maximize performance and cultivate a positive, thriving workplace culture.
Participants will take part in a series of activities designed to ensure retention and application in the workplace and will:
- Explore the science behind the Emergenetics Profile and its seven attributes.
- Discover their personal thinking and behavioral preferences.
- Find new ways to interact and collaborate with others.
- Uncover a common language that unifies teams and company culture.
EACH PARTICIPANT MUST COMPLETE AN EMERGENETICS PROFILE QUESTIONNAIRE BEFORE THE IN-PERSON COURSE.
Dr. Paula Kensler (email: [email protected] or phone: 504-568-4184) will contact all registrants to complete their profiles. Dr. Kensler can be contacted for more information.
Learning Objectives:
- Evaluate your thinking and behaving preferences through experiential learning.
- Examine how your preferred behavioral attributes affect others' perception of your preferred thinking attributes.
- Discover how appreciating your strengths and those of others supports a positive culture and optimizes team performance.
- Explore how to inspire people and organizations to thrive by offering a simpler, easier way to understand each other and build relationships that drive performance.
- Evaluate how the WeTeam approach can improve the quality and efficiency of teamwork.
Nurses may earn 4.5 contact hours of nursing continuing professional development.
