Today's Topic: OVERCOMING IMMUNITY TO CHANGE
Whether we are trying to lose weight and exercise more, become better listeners, delegate more, or treat people differently, our best intentions are often no match for our internal systems that make us immune to certain types of change.
Harvard Professors Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey have developed a powerful way of working with individuals and teams to identify and overcome obstacles that often make us "immune" to well-meaning efforts to change.
Jonathan Sibley will take us through Kegan and Lahey's methodology, using group participation, to explore an example of how to identify and begin to address the types of change that are so often prone to failure.

Topic: Build a New Kind of Wealth: Social Capital
In your rush to use online social networking to find a job, many of you may be downplaying your key face-to-face relationship-building skills. While it can be easier to interact with an inanimate computer, it won’t ever replace your need to develop stellar communication skills to build your “network of knob turners” in person. Learn from an international networking authority how to prepare before an event or meeting, work it and follow up for maximum results. Seeing the white of someone’s eyes is still the surest way to get a job!
