How to Work a Room: Preparing for an Event
How to Work a Room: Preparing for an Event Successfully attending a business event doesn't mean just showing up. In most cases, there's a reason why you're there and a goal that needs to be accomplished. Maybe you're attending a corporate function and need to make face time with potential clients. Or perhaps you're going to a networking event to meet relevant professionals in your industry. Maybe it's an educational seminar or community gathering. Whatever the case, these types of situations require interacting enthusiastically with other attendees. This comes naturally to some, and not at all to others. The aim of this program is to help you project a professional image for you and your organization, while getting the most value out of your event.
How to Work a Room: Attending an Event
How to Work a Room: Attending an Event You're at a business function. Did you know that there's a proper way to wear a name tag? Or that there is appropriate etiquette to shaking someone's hand?

We'll answer these questions and many more as we go over what to do and what NOT to do when attending a networking or business event.
How to Work a Room: After the Event
How to Work a Room: After the Event You've attended the event. You've mingled. You avoided the hot wings. You met Marty's close-talker wife who didn't avoid the hot wings. You're done, right? Not quite. After all of the preparation and thought you've put into attending this event, you need to close it out with some follow-up. In this last program, we'll talk about what you need to do to leave a lasting impression on the connections you've met and talked with, and how to best continue those relationships.

Being Likable
Being Likable
Humans have an instinctive need to be liked. We experience positive feelings of high self-esteem when we believe that others view us positively. Being liked gives us a sense of belonging, and it impacts our view of our self-worth. Likability doesn’t come just from natural traits. Likeability can be developed through learned behaviors, understanding emotional intelligence, and personal growth. In this course, you’ll explore some key behaviors and habits of well-liked people that you can emulate to make yourself well-liked. Learn about making connections, being positive, staying present, and more.
Being Respected
Being Respected
Being respected is when others hold feelings of admiration for you because of your worth, abilities, qualities, and achievements - when they hold you in high esteem. People have an inherent desire to be respected. It’s a fundamental aspect of human interaction because it contributes to your sense of dignity, self-worth, and value as an individual. In this course, we’ll explore several ways to earn respect. This includes showing empathy, maintaining accountability, and demonstrating confidence. We’ll also go over strategies for restoring respect if it’s been lost.
How To Work With Someone You Dislike
How To Work With Someone You Dislike
The reality is that we’re not going to like everyone we work with. And in turn, not everyone is going to like us. Sometimes we just don’t click. Thankfully, there are some tried and tested methods we can employ to successfully engage with someone that we’re not very fond of. In this program, we’ll cover these strategies, including keeping emotions in check, practicing basic civility, finding common ground, and providing honest, constructive feedback.
How to Know What You Don't Know: 01. Getting Up to Speed
How to Know What You Don't Know: 01. Getting Up to Speed Donald Rumsfeld once said "There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know." That's what this program is about, finding out what we don't know, so we can learn it, get up to speed, and do our jobs better.
How to Know What You Don't Know: 02. Identifying Blind Spots
How to Know What You Don't Know: 02. Identifying Blind Spots An unknown unknown in business is typically referred to as a blind spot. This program discusses how to uncover these blind spots to improve your personal business performance.
This vs. That: Assertive vs. Aggressive
This vs. That: Assertive vs. Aggressive Some situations call for you to be assertive. And some people are better at being assertive than others. Have you ever hesitated out of fear that your assertiveness will come across as aggression? In this program, we'll take a look at how you can be assertive without being perceived as aggressive.
This vs. That: Compromise vs. Cave
This vs. That: Compromise vs. Cave Are you a pushover? When someone asks you for something, do you just give in and move on to the next thing? Do you feel like there are times when you cave before you really should, rather than focusing on a compromise? In this program, we'll discuss when it's wise to concede, and when and how you should come up with a mutually beneficial compromise.
This vs. That: Concise vs. Curt
This vs. That: Concise vs. Curt This probably happens more in written word versus the spoken word, but it can happen in either instance. You receive a quick communication from your boss or coworker and think, "Wow, that was rude." Because we are forced to interpret the mood and meaning of the message without the aid of body language, tone of voice, or facial expression, things are often miscommunicated. So in this course, we teach on how to send messages that are short, yet still sweet.
This vs. That: Confident vs. Conceited
This vs. That: Confident vs. Conceited There's a fine line between presenting yourself in a confident way and coming across as being conceited. In this program, we'll go over some different ways to convey confidence, and we'll also discuss some arrogant behaviors to avoid.
This vs. That: Finished vs. Flawless
This vs. That: Finished vs. Flawless You have a deadline, but in order to meet it, you would have to skimp on quality. Do you do it to meet your deadline? Or would you miss your deadline and turn in a high-quality project? Time versus quality is something we have all struggled with, but there's no alliteration in that title, so let's talk about work that's flawless versus work that's finished.
This vs. That: Persistent vs. Pestering
This vs. That: Persistent vs. Pestering You've likely been in a situation where you're waiting on something from someone else to complete your own task. You may casually check in for a status update. Meanwhile, your boss is asking you when it's going to be done, but you can't say because you don't know when the other person will get it to you, and you don't want to throw them under the bus. This course is all about what to do in this situation and finding the right balance between being persistent and being a downright pest.
This vs. That: Reserved vs. Rude
This vs. That: Reserved vs. Rude Sometimes reserved people get a bad rap. Their lack of boisterousness gives them the reputation of being rude or snobby, when in fact, they're perfectly nice people who are often misread. Truly rude people do exist, and there is no room for rudeness in the workplace. Yes, it's not always sunshine and rainbows, and being cheerful isn't always possible, but employees should always be courteous and respectful. In this program, we'll discuss the difference between someone who is reserved and someone who is rude, and why rudeness at work is unacceptable.
