Workshop
with Marshall Goldsmith

Marshall Goldsmith is a world authority in
helping successful leaders get even better – by achieving
positive change in behavior: for themselves, their people and their
teams. The Wall Street Journal named him one of the top 10 executive
educators and Forbes calls him one of the 5 most respected executive
coaches. Marshall is one of a select few advisors who have been asked
to work with over 80 major CEOs and their management teams. In this
intimate WIL workshop, Dr. Marshall discussed the concepts in his #1
best-selling book in NYT and WSJ, What Got You Here Won’t Get You
There. .

Communications

Examination of gender differences and streotypes
with Prof Laura Kray. Discuss communications styles, socialization and
conflict management as it applies to the work place. How does your
non-verbal communication vary with each gender? How have your work
experiences influenced your attitudes about what a male or female
employee should be like? How have you been socialized to behave since
your childhood? These topics and more were discussed in depth.
