Description: |
Could your brain be sabotaging your career? You may already know you need to change your attitude to change your behavior. However, no matter how hard you try, you can't seem to stop negative feelings that cause tension, arguments and frustration with family members, friends and colleages. This is because you're under the spell of your "over-protective" brain. To break that spell, you need to understand how your brain works so you can consciously choose how you want to feel and act. Join us on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 to learn how to access the emotional intelligence your brain is protecting you from using from Dr. Marcia Reynolds.
Dr. Reynolds is a world-renowned expert at teaching people how their brains work so they can make better choices, deal with life's challenges and strengthen their relationships. Her client list includes Nokia, British Telecom, Medtronic, GlaxoSmithKline, Amgen, American Express, Maersk, Deloitte, Ernst & Young, Advance Auto, Home National Bank, and Staples plus many agencies of the National Institute of Health. Excerpts from her book, Outsmart Your Brain, have appeared in Fortune, Investors Business Daily, Cosmopolitan, Christian Science Monitor, Family Circle, The Los Angeles Times and The New York Times, and she has appeared on ABC World News, National Public Radio, and Japan Nightly News.
During her presentation you'll learn:
* How your brain works and what's really driving your thoughts and behavior,
* How to shift into an "optimal productive state,"
* How to identify the source of others' emotions so you can negotiate more effectively and resolve conflicts more easily,
*How to clear your mind so you can make better decisions and get the results you want.
Although you may be smart, your brain could be holding you back. Don't let it! Register today and take control of your life by learning techniques to help you control your brain instead of letting it control you.

What do terms such as "wiki," "blog," "social networking", "RSS" and "podcast" mean to you? If they're unfamiliar to you, they won't be for long. They're all Web 2.0 technologies, and they're changing the way we work in ways we could only have imagined a few years ago.
Web 2.0 technologies are helping individuals and businessesATW Logo build more, connect more, share more, have more fun, sell more stuff, and do it all faster and more efficiently. So, it's important to know which tools and applications are right for a given project and how they can add value?
Join us to learn how Web 2.0 will change the way we communicate and collaborate. Our presenter will be Dr. Julie Smith David, Director of the Center for Advancing Business through IT and an Associate Professor in the Department of Information Systems.

She shares this "real world" knowledge in the information systems classes she teaches such as Managing Information Systems, the MBA core course that focuses on the strategic importance of IT and the costs, risks and opportunities that emerging technologies provide.
Her research mirrors her teaching responsibilities as she studies emerging aspects of enterprise applications, their design, and the impact they have on companies. Her work has been published in Management Science, Communications of the ACM, Journal of Information Systems, International Journal of Accounting Information Systems, and Strategic Finance.
