During the January Leadership Coach, we explored the power of the word “no” while conceding that there are, of course, times when you need to say yes. So how do you know when it’s the right time? To quote Stephen Covey – we tend to focus on what is urgent over what is important. Join us for this 30-minute session to learn to better focus on putting what is important front and center.
Amy Orlov, Forté’s Director of Professional Programs, will kick off the conversation with a 10-minute talk on important vs. urgent and then we’ll open the conversation for attendees to share ideas and best practices. Please join us and be prepared to contribute to the conversation!

Aligning Strengths, Values, and Differences to Maximize our Collective Potential

This session builds upon an appreciative perspective for learning about, learning across and learning from differences, while fully acknowledging the “best-self blockers” that biases and inequity present for our workplaces and communities.
