It Pays to Ask: Negotiating for Leadership Success
March 18-19, 2008

Women negotiate all the time. Although we associate negotiations with formal agreements and contracts, the most important negotiations occur in the everyday work we do in our organizations. Women are constantly negotiating on the job—for a plum assignment, a new client, credit for work, more time or more money. How we fare depends on whether we can take advantage of opportunities to negotiate. Join negotiation expert, Dr. Deborah Kolb, for this career-changing workshop where you will gain the skills and confidence to negotiate what you need to succeed in your work. Women who negotiate effectively report that they gain more leadership opportunities, better performance reviews and more satisfaction with their jobs. Learn how to negotiate for your leadership success.

Leading Organizational Change
May 19-21, 2008

Change is constant in organizations today, but managing it well can be challenging. Change initiatives take many forms and may be the result of internal forces, such as a change to an organization’s mission or operational structure, or external forces, such as a change in the industry or economy. Your capacity to successfully manage change depends on your ability to identify and navigate the complex interpersonal and strategic issues involved. Led by Dr. Cynthia Ingols, Leading Organizational Change will provide you with unique perspectives, practical approaches and a clear framework that you can immediately apply to your own situation and ensure you become a more effective change agent in your organization.
