LinkedIn Learning Course

How to Give & Receive Useful Feedback Every Month

The current feedback model is broken. Most employees don’t feel that their annual review is fair or accurate. Craig Dowden exposes gaps in common performance review practices and presents an empowering alternative approach everybody can use–no matter where you work—in this course adapted from the podcast How to Be Awesome at Your Job. Learn what not to do when delivering feedback, and find out how to transition from feedback provider to feedback facilitator. Craig also recommends a monthly “do-it-yourself” performance review for its various fundamental benefits. Plus, learn why more progressive organizations are separating raises, promotions, and compensation from performance review conversations and are moving toward a check-in type of process.

LinkedIn Learning is a professional development resource available to all faculty & staff. LinkedIn Learning: SLCC Learn

Fighting Gender Bias at Work

Gender bias is holding women back in the workplace. Whether deliberate or unconscious, bias makes it harder for women to get hired and promoted and negatively impacts their day-to-day work experiences. Created by LeanIn.Org, this short video series—one introductory video and six two-to-three-minute videos—is designed to provide an understanding of how gender bias impacts women’s and men’s experiences at work. These videos cover the five most common types of biases women face and address the concept of intersectionality. The videos can be watched individually or paired with a card-based activity that brings people together to have meaningful discussions about gender bias. For additional resources on combating gender bias in the workplace, visit leanin.org/50ways


All employees can utilize LinkedIn Learning: SLCC Learn or https://lnkd.in/gE9RCNW.

CW04 - Improving Writing--Grammarphobia

(This workshop is a partnership between Staff Development and the Staff Association.)

This workshop in the WAC’s “Improving Writing” series, will help you reduce anxiety about

grammar and correctness.  Such anxiety can, ironically, get in the way of producing effective

writing. In this workshop, participants will face their fears of being wrong, will learn that they

are better at grammar than they think they are, and will learn strategies to write through their

worries instead of being hindered by them.

CC28 – Understanding Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Thursday, March 17th

11:00 am – 12:00 pm

 

Learning Objectives

There are two types of behaviors that need to be considered when caring for others. 1) The true nature of a person—the behaviors they have always used; and, 2) The behaviors that are present because of a diagnosis, injury, or change in health condition. Learn to differentiate between the two. 

CC32 – Calming Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Tuesday, April 12th

1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

 

Learning Objectives

Noah Elkrief said, “A behavior is not difficult. It is the story we write about the behavior that makes it difficult for us”. Learn to separate the behavior from the story. Learn to create calm environments that keep behaviors manageable.

CC30 – Working With Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Tuesday, May 10th

10:00 am – 11:00 am

 

Learning Objectives

Professionals use a variety of words when discussing behaviors—examples include, coping, guiding, and managing.

Some behaviors require assistance.
