How many times we have we all come up with 2 or 3 or 4 resolutions and said, “This time I’m going to do it!” – but we still don’t make them happen.

Once the original enthusiasm fades, we lose our drive, we don’t stay on task and we’re right back where we started. But now we’re even more frustrated because once again, we didn’t follow through and accomplish our goal.

It doesn’t have to be this way – you can become more efficient at reaching your goals! You can break the cycle of disappointment and make those resolutions real!

In this seminar you’ll learn:

  • 3 steps that will turn your Resolutions into Reality
  • The one sure-fire way you can overcome ANY obstacle in your life!
  • The secret to success includes being prepared to fail.
  • You’ll learn the 2 things that motivate all human behavior and how you can use them to achieve what you want.

Webinar Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 Category C PDU – Free PDU

Even when Diversity & Inclusion initiatives seem to have all of the right components in place, many will falter or fail. Often, such initiatives end up being dwarfed by other important or timely programs or completely eliminated because it doesn’t bear fruit or resolve an immediate problem.

Join Linkage for a complimentary webinar with Baystate Health as they discuss how in just a little more than three short years, their Office of Diversity & Inclusion has been able to successfully embed its Diversity & Inclusion strategy into the organization and is already seeing evidence of the culture shift taking place. After careful observation, their three person D&I team has been able to identify the keys to their success.

During this session attendees will have an opportunity to:

  • Learn how to use an organizational assessment to drive their Diversity & Inclusion strategy
  • Define Diversity & Inclusion in ways that do not alienate leaders and employees who are not conventionally considered “diverse”
  • Understand how to embed their Diversity & Inclusion strategy into the overall mission and strategy of the organization.

Presenters:

Bobby Rodriguez, Chief Diversity Officer, brings with him a long track record of promoting diversity in healthcare settings, says improving Baystate’s cultural competencies means better patient experiences and the highest-quality care.

Kimberly Williams, Diversity Specialist, in 2005 created Next Level Development (NLD) in an effort to promote the career and personal development of women and people of color over the life span…substituting chance with information and preparation.
