Personal Literacy: The human side of our professional life
324 How to be Human at Work

Until robots take over the world of work, we will still be showing up with all of our “human-ness” every day.  Contrary to popular thought, nobody really compartmentalizes or keeps the parts of our lives separate.  We bring our best and our baggage. In this program, we explore what makes us human, how our emotions impact our work lives, practical advice for managing difficult people and situations, empathy and its role in the workplace, and what it means to tend to our personal well-being at work. Workshop exercises, assessments, and tools provide new ways of thriving at work and helping others do the same?
