Learning Events Snapshots
Employee Engagement and Diversity & Inclusion Experiences

Two dynamic events took place @July to accelerate the University’s effort on Employee Engagement and Diversity & Inclusion.  We gained some learning and take-away which can be applied in our work and personal life in an interesting way.  Both events promoted acceptance, appreciation and respect of diversities.  

We were creative and collaborative in the Dark and Silence Experience, helped each other out with the constraints that we faced.  The Sikh Temple Visit helped us become more socially inclusive to people different from us and appreciate the richness of life that it brings.  The kids who joined us were brilliant, gentle, and very into the event.

Let's keep the vibes going, stay empathetic and appreciative at work.

Details of the 2 Events
EAP Wellness Workshops

Zentangle @May and Singing Bowl @June were well-received by colleagues.  

@July we organized Self-massage with Essential Oils Workshop.  Colleagues learned self-massage techniques for alleviating the stress and use of essential oils to maximize the impact.  We will re-run the Self-massage workshop @Aug and priority will be given to colleagues on the waiting list of July workshop.

Food for Thoughts

Do you have difficulty in implementing change?  Remember, you don't need to convince everyone at once.  You should focus on a keystone change which leads to a tangible goal and the change must be at low-risk.  Sell success rather than an idea and keep building on your success...
