THE NEUROSCIENCE OF COMMUNICATION FOR TRUST AND THE IMPACTS OF STRESS  

Speaker: Jody Kennett

Everyday we have multiple conversations with the people we work with whether in person, online, or by emails, but how many of us know the impact our communication has on others? In every conversation there is a chemical reaction of trust or distrust. There is a neuroscience to communication called C-IQ or Conversational Intelligence. The trainings and tools in C-IQ create leaders who can connect with their teams, build trust, and lead relationships where people partner together. Learn what C-IQ is, the chemistry of a conversation, the impact of stress on communication, and how great leadership depends on communication.


POSITIVE VIRTUAL PRESENCE 

Speaker: Joanne Blake 

An essential skill that engineering and geoscience professionals need more than ever is online presence. Professional presence in a physical conference room does not equal the same level of presence in online meetings. Both in-person and online meetings are shared experiences, but there are limitations when we are not in the same physical space. What works at the office does not automatically translate in virtual meetings. The purpose of professional presence is to inspire trust, confidence and promote credibility. This session is for you if you would like to learn best practices to be more effective online and beyond.
