Employee Wellness is pleased to announce the topic and dates for its Fall Speaker Series: "Finding Your Work-Life Rhythm in a COVID World."
This year, many of us were thrust into teleworking without ever having worked remotely before. And, all the while, we have been adjusting to a roller coaster of emotions brought on by a Pandemic. While some may feel they have adjusted, many still seek to find their rhythm and connection to others. It is our hope that our fall speaker series will provide both insight and actionable steps that may provide you the tools you need. Join us this fall to learn best practices for integrating work and life while also feeling productive and connected while many of our faculty and staff continues to work remotely, either partially or exclusively.
Our featured speaker, Dr. Adam Feiner, is a clinical and consulting psychologist with experience assisting clients in overcoming a variety of personal, professional, and organizational challenges. Visit our Fall Speaker Series web page to learn more about Dr. Feiner and his background.
All full- and part-time faculty and staff are invited and encouraged to attend this series. It is our hope that employees will take advantage of both sessions. Both sessions will be delivered via Zoom and will allow time for Q & A with our speaker. Read on for more details on both sessions.
Part One, Improving Your Life Through Work-Life Integration, Wed., Sept. 30, from 9 - 10:30 a.m.
Work and life are not only inherently unbalanced, they are also heavily fused with one another. Rather than seeking balance, this training will enable you to lower your stress and enhance your work and life satisfaction by helping you identify the areas where work and life overlap with one another in order to develop a plan to achieve true work-life integration.
Part Two, How to Remain Productive and Connected as an Office of One, Tues., Oct. 6, from 9 - 10:30 a.m.
While there are many benefits of teleworking, a remote office isn't always the best fit for everybody or for all situations. In this training, learn how to be successful with, and get the most out of, teleworking. Find out what changes you may need to make to be as productive as possible while avoiding the sense of isolation that can come from working remotely.
For full-time, benefits-eligible employees participating in the Wellness Your Way program, each session will be worth 30 points, for a total of 60 points for the series.
