Webinar: Strengths-Based Leadership - How to Manage Your Career & Life During Challenging Times

4/29/2020 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Don't let social distancing keep you from joining other alumni and friends online for a webinar featuring Dr. Jennifer Scott Mobley '99 as she addresses the perfect topic for our times.

Learn how to use strengths-based leadership to navigate your career and life during challenging times. During this webinar, you will learn a four-stage process on how to determine "what's next" by:

  • Doubling down on existing strengths, interests, and experiences
  • Finding new opportunities and identifying skills to develop without falling prey to analysis paralysis
  • Running small experiments to determine next steps
  • Taking smart risks to launch with confidence in a new direction.

Rooted in best practices in career and leadership development, this webinar is based on Jennifer’s upcoming book that will be published by Forbes later this year. Her book is informed by more than a decade of her experience as a communication professor where she taught the principles of professional and organizational communication ranging from personal branding to virtual team development.
