Living Notre Dame's Values (required for managers and supervisors)
This program reinforces that, at the University, healthy discourse is encouraged, concerns are expressed, misconduct is reported, retaliation is not tolerated, and constructive remarks, however critical, are heard and appropriately considered. Created as part of our mission, this workshop will help us all to be more effective in our common work. We are a better place if we listen to differing opinions respectfully and learn from one another in a way that strengthens trust. (Register via eNDeavor)
Better Conversations Everyday
This interactive workshop teaches coaching skills that a) foster trust, empowerment, and respect/fairness b) equip all to speak up, give feedback, and better collaborate c) accelerate the growing culture of coaching at Notre Dame. While coaching skills are valuable at all levels on our organizational chart, this particular session gathers supervisors/managers to build connections, share common challenges, and exchange best practices.
