Take the ‘un’ out of uncomfortable topics and conversations.
Learn to navigate the complicated world of workplace dynamics with help from experts in human resources.
Harnessing the Power of "No"
Negotiating departmental dynamics, research collaborations, and committee requests while maintaining positive relationships is a skill every person needs. In this webinar, we will cover: Problem-solving negotiation strategies for nice people; How to harness the power of “No” to regain the time and respect you need to focus on your career, your personal life (self-care), and your family; and How intersectional stereotypes enter into the mix.
Unhook from Imposter Syndrome
If you’ve ever felt like an imposter, you’re not alone. 7 in 10 adults experience feelings of “not good enough” at some point in their lives. Join Kati Schneider, LISW, Embedded Staff Therapist at the Tippie College of Business, to learn more about imposter syndrome and discover tips to help you work through these thoughts and feelings.
Can You Hear Me Now?
Your voice matters. Employee voice – an employee’s expression of new ideas or problems that need to be resolved – has a tremendous impact on organizations. For a variety of reasons, too many employees don’t feel heard or don’t feel their input matters.
Job Burnout Stops Here
While job burnout has always been a challenge for people and organizations, recent surveys show the problem is at a record high (and rising).
But what exactly is burnout, and how is it different from stress? How can people and organizations address and prevent it?
You’ll learn evidence-based strategies for recognizing burnout and its negative effects on productivity and well-being, presented by Professor Stephen Courtright from the Tippie College of Business.
We Need to Talk
Think about the last time you disagreed with someone. Some of us may avoid difficult conversations at all cost while others may see this as an opportunity to change the other person's mind.
In this webinar, Amy Colbert and Eean Crawford, professors in the Department of Management & Entrepreneurship at the Tippie College of Business, will discuss strategies for having constructive dialogues. You'll be ready the next time someone says, "We need to talk!"
Toxic Leadership
If you have ever had a boss that bullies and belittles their employees, then you know the destructive influence that these bosses have on their organizations. But have you ever wondered why bosses behave like that in the first place or why these bosses seem to escape punishment -- sometimes even get rewarded -- for their behavior?
In this webinar, Stephen Courtright, Director of Executive Education and Henry B. Tippie Research Professor of Management and Entrepreneurship, will talk about how he has studied hundreds of toxic bosses and answer questions about toxic leadership and how organization can address this problem.
Autonomy & Boundaries
Greg Stewart—a global expert and consultant on workplace autonomy and self-managing teams—and Jennifer Nahrgang—whose research on job design and employee side hustles has won international awards and influenced corporate executives—will discuss the benefits of providing employees with autonomy and flexibility in how their work is done, and how leaders can respect and model work-life balance.
The Business of Inclusion
We recently hosted a conversation around inclusion and the efforts Tippie alumni are making to ensure it's is a part of their companies' priorities. We also heard about the work the Tippie College of Business is currently doing from associate dean, Dr. Ken Brown.
