SUMMARY:How Language Rules Your Mind with Linda Bruno
DESCRIPTION:Register for live webinar or recording \n\n\n\nWhen we hear someone say\, “Watch your language\,” we often think of cursing\, intentionally belittling someone\, or being defensive. And of course\, we need to watch our language regarding those areas. \n\n\n\nHave you ever considered\, though\, how you talk to yourself? Or about yourself? Or what you “tell yourself” as you talk to others? In this webinar\, we’ll talk about those things…and how having an awareness of our language can change the direction of our days. I don’t know about you\, but sometimes\, my days need to change direction! \n\n\n\nLinda Bruno has been developing and conducting training workshops for libraries for more than fifteen years. Her favorite thing to do is to help people become their best selves! That’s why she offers workshops on topics ranging from Leadership Skills to Emotional Intelligence – and lots of areas in between. \n\n\n\nPLAN webinars are free for all Florida library staff and volunteers.

SUMMARY:Creating a Motivating Environment for Your Staff with Linda Bruno
DESCRIPTION:Register for live webinar or recording \n\n\n\nIn this highly interactive 60-minute webinar\, we’ll discuss Creating a Motivating Environment; what motivation is and what it isn’t – and why you can’t “motivate” someone else. \n\n\n\nAlthough we often think motivation is linked to externals such as pay (and who doesn’t like a little more in their paycheck??)\, what really makes us want to go work is what’s known as “internal motivation.” \n\n\n\nWe’ll brainstorm together to create an extensive list of ways you can help create a motivating environment – at little or no cost to you. We’ll discover the power in praise and how to use it effectively. Ah…a motivating environment ~ isn’t that what we all want in our workplaces? \n\n\n\nLinda Bruno has been developing and conducting training workshops for libraries for more than fifteen years. Her favorite thing to do is to help people become their best selves! That’s why she offers workshops on topics ranging from Leadership Skills to Emotional Intelligence – and lots of areas in between. \n\n\n\nPLAN webinars are free for all Florida library staff and volunteers.

SUMMARY:Assertiveness for the Unassertive: Overcoming Your Passive Tendencies with Linda Bruno
DESCRIPTION:Register for live webinar or recording \n\n\n\nAssertiveness – grrrrr! Oh wait\, that’s being aggressive! In this webinar\, we’ll discuss the differences between being assertive and aggressive\, as well as the dangers of being passive. Moving through today’s world\, no matter what our position is in the workplace\, learning to be assertive can be a valuable skill. But there can definitely be a fine line between that and aggressiveness. And it won’t serve us well to cross that line\, just like it typically doesn’t serve us well to be passive. \n\n\n\nIn the midst of our daily activities\, it’s easy to just let things go\, which is sometimes the best choice. But being passive can create big problems – as can being aggressive. We can contribute to tension in our workplace\, low morale\, a poor public image\, and lots of other problem areas we would all rather avert. \n\n\n\nAssertiveness can help us be more confident in our interactions on a daily basis. AND it can relieve some of the stress in our lives. Why not develop this important skill? \n\n\n\nLinda Bruno has been developing and conducting training workshops for libraries for more than fifteen years.
