IMPORTANT NOTES:
Each webinar requires separate registration. This is the best way to capture questions you may have for each presenter, so be sure to note your questions in the registration form for each webinar that you sign up for. Each webinar will be live and only those registered for the event will receive the connection information, sent to them the day prior to the webinar.
Continuing education credits for NJ State and NCRA will only be rewarded to those registered and in attendance for the entire webinar. There will be a questionnaire at the end of each live webinar which attendees will be required to respond to in order to receive CE credit. Proof of attendance will also be provided about a week after the webinar (via email) so you have it for your records.
Recordings of each webinar may be made available.

MINDFUL COMMUNICATION IN TODAY’S DIVERSE WORKPLACE
CE POINTS: (1.0 NJ CE/ .10 NCRA CEU)
Thursday, June 18, 2020
7:00pm-8:00pm ET
PRESENTER: Alfred A. Betz, President of Al Betz & Associates, Inc., and Co-Founder and Member of Outfluence, LLC
SEMINAR DESCRIPTION:
Our culture and, consequentially, the workplace are becoming increasingly diverse. This diversity is comprised not just of international cultures, but also of regional cultures within the United States. In 2016 two surveys reported that between 40% and 60% of U.S. adults settle and obtain employment away from the areas in which they grew up. Activities and a group project will demonstrate how diversity and experiential interpretation filter and block communication among individuals. Interactive discussions will determine ways to overcome communication filters and barriers resulting from diversity in the workplace.
The concept of mindfulness is currently receiving a great deal of attention in both behavioral and management fields. Non-verbal communication can “speak louder than words.” The group will explore the roles of the other senses in communication and highlight the need for awareness and sensitivity to the ways we communicate silently. Constant Messaging and the existence of Sensory Perimeters are particularly impactful concepts that emphasize the danger of unintended messages being delivered to unexpected receivers. Illustrations and scenarios will reveal potential unintended outcomes and how to avoid them.
The presentation utilizes Power Point, participative demonstrations, worksheets, and collaborative activities.
