Jamie and Maren Showkeir will be presenting this workshop sponsored by AZODN. The price is a steal.

Here's some information from the brochure: Because people often fail to see the power of ordinary conversations, the ways we talk to each other in the workplace frequently create and perpetuate a parent-child dynamic -- to the detriment of business results.

Think about how often you: • Talk about ways to “hold other people accountable” • Discuss ways to build morale among employees • Complain privately to coworkers that a new policy or project “will never work” • Keep silent when you were told to do something you didn’t think was in the best interest of the business • Tell yourself, “I can’t do anything about that situation. It’s not my job.” • Withhold business information because employees “don’t need it” or “can’t handle it.” • Avoid confronting colleagues who have let you down
