Join us in February with Dr. Shizuka Modica to explore how we make work meaningful and use this to engage ourselves and others at work.

The Program

When we find our work meaningful, we willingly commit ourselves to excel beyond the call of our duty. A thorough understanding of how we make meaning is, for sure, important in managing not only our own but also others' performance. Yet how we make meaning is elusive at best to many of us, let alone how to lead others meaningfully. In this interactive presentation, Dr. Modica will introduce you to the universal principles of meaning-making. You will also have an opportunity to explore how you make meaning in your own work (self-assessment) and how you can apply these universal principles to manage your work performance. We will also discuss how to create environments conducive to others’ positive meaning-making.
