Session Presenters
Communication and Leadership in the Pack
Presented by Toastmasters
The ability of our youth to communicate comfortably and take on leadership roles is important. Interpersonal communication skills are essential to their success. Students will explore the arts of communication and leadership adapted from the Interpersonal Communication Program and Youth Leadership Program. In this friendly and supportive atmosphere participants will be encouraged to explore their listening, expression and communication skills. They will also explore subjects such as chairmanship, public speaking, speech organization, listening and gestures.
Effective Problem Solving
Presented by Fadi Rahal, EPS: Effective Problem Solving
Effective Problem Solving is all about the Effective Solutions you take. Come and learn about the difference between “issue resolution”and “issue elimination or prevention”. In addition, you will get an understanding of what is implied when; you have taken a “Corrective Action” or have performed a “Root Cause Analysis (RCA)”, or you have determined the “Root Causes”. A very simple technique you can use in any organization, function, personally, professionally to help you break away from the ineffective problem solving strategies we use today and help you prevent problem from recurring and eliminate problem from occurring.
The Power of Choice
Presented by Chris Williams, My 1st Suit
We make choices every day. In this discussion we will explore how this power is creating the world around us and the responsibility we have to those choices.
