JUST DESSERTS
The Ingredients that Produce a Climate of Respect

Just Desserts: Ingredients that Produce a Climate of Respect

Improving respectful interactions takes awareness and willingness to shift ones preferred communication style. These skills are becoming increasingly important as we’re asked to do more inter/intra-departmental collaborations with fewer resources. This seminar is great for entire teams or individuals. This event will take place in the Sykes Student Union, room 252B on Friday, April 19th and Friday, May 3rd, 2013 from 1-2:30PM.
