SUMMARY:Servant Leadership Community of Practice
DESCRIPTION:This month’s topic: Thirsty for wonder…hungry for curiosity\nWhat gets in the way of wonder and curiosity for you? How do we deal with times when you know in your body and mind that something is disturbing you? \nRobert Greenleaf observed and wrote\, “Awareness is not a giver of solace—it is just the opposite. It is a disturber and an awakener.”  \nAs leaders\, we often find ourselves in situations that do not feel safe. Maybe others are looking to us for answers and there doesn’t seem to be one. Maybe something happened to us or around us that is causing us to feel disconnected from our values or what we really care about. Maybe\, we are facing a personal loss or trauma.  \nRegardless\, many people can name a time when they were starkly aware in their mind and body that something doesn’t feel right.   \nHow do we move forward as leaders from a place of fear or trauma and open up space within our mind and body that allows curiosity and positive energy to start flowing again?   \nIn this session Caroline Coughlin Lampereur will walk through processes from bringing more curiosity and wonder into our mind and body when we find ourselves feeling stuck or disturbed.  \n  \nAbout this Conversation \nServant Leadership Community of Practice is a fully virtual offering for learning about your individual servant leadership strengths and learning new practices through small group discussion\, facilitated conversations\, and personal reflection. This event occurs on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. CST via Zoom. \nProgram Overview \nCommunity of Practice sessions are amazing opportunities for any and all leaders to gather and learn from each other. Through these monthly sessions\, attendees build\, share\, and learn from others as a community of transformative leaders. It’s highly interactive and each month a different servant leadership topic is explored. Learn more about the Community of Practice program here!

SUMMARY:Servant Leadership Community of Practice
DESCRIPTION:This month’s topic: Leading with Gratitude\nTransforming holiday overwhelm into overjoy. \nHere they come…the holidays! Thanksgiving\, Hanukkah\, Kwanzaa\, St. Nicholas\, Christmas\, New Years and more! Not only are the holidays a time to spend with those we care about most\, the holidays can also be a time when we find too much on already full personal and workplace plates.  \nThe antidote to a full plate is finding moments of reflection\, gratitude and genuine connection with others that can transform overwhelm into overjoy.  \nResearch shows that gratitude should not be something done once a year around the Thanksgiving table. Leading with gratitude everyday helps individuals feel happier\, have an improved sense of wellbeing\, higher self-esteem\, have less depression and anxiety\, and even sleep better.  \nThrough small group breakout sessions\, large group discussion and individual self-reflection\, facilitated by Sophia Partners Executive Director and Learning Facilitator\, Christa Williams\, we will: \n\nExplore and find gratitude for all that “we carry”\nDiscuss the research on leading with gratitude\nIdentify and commit to gratitude best-practices \n\n  \nAbout this Conversation \nServant Leadership Community of Practice is a fully virtual offering for learning about your individual servant leadership strengths and learning new practices through small group discussion\, facilitated conversations\, and personal reflection. This event occurs on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. CST via Zoom. \nProgram Overview \nCommunity of Practice sessions are amazing opportunities for any and all leaders to gather and learn from each other.

SUMMARY:FABOH Leadership Training

Each leadership training workshop features a different topic and speaker to support employee engagement. \nThis series will provide quarterly training opportunities for all FABOH member employees but is aimed specifically at supervisors\, managers\, directors\, or any other employees who currently lead others within their organization or aspire to in the future. \nHow Full is Your Plate?\nPrioritization and portion control strategies for people with too much on their plate\nPeople often get promoted to leadership positions for their ability to multitask\, make quick decisions and accomplish goals.  With success in these areas\, more and more is added to people’s span of care and area of responsibility until we hear people saying\, “I have so much on my plate.”   \nIn this workshop we will use the “too much on my plate” metaphor to explore: \n\nWhat to do when we recognize that there is too much on our plate?  \nUnderstanding how things are getting on your plate in the first place.\nEnsuring that everything on our plate should be there by creating time and space for reflection and prioritization. \nSharing what’s on our plate with others through delegation and communication strategies. \nHealthy planning for what is on your plate. \n\nSpeaker: Christa Williams \nDate: Wednesday\, February 26\, 2025 \nTime: 8:30 – 10:30 a.m. \nLocation: Marian University – Stayer Center \nPre-registration is required.
