ZLDR-8950 Time Management & Prioritization
0.3 CEUs
We are all swamped with work and personal responsibilities, projects, magazines to read, social media to keep up with and lots of other things we want to do as soon as we get caught up. Prioritization is an essential skill that we must master to make the best use of our efforts and those of our teams. This skill also helps create an atmosphere of calmness and fluidity that allows us to focus our energy and attention on things that are truly productive.

ZLDR-8952 Adaptability & Change Enablement
0.3 CEUs
An organization’s ability to effectively drive change depends on its ability to engage its most valuable resource — its people — in the process. This course provides the skills and resources leaders need to accelerate change implementation and create an agile work environment in which people are more open to change. Change happens all around us — at home, in our communities and at work. The only constant of change is that it is unavoidable. Anxiety over the unknown, changes in roles and responsibilities and/or processes can result in unhappy, unproductive and stressed-out employees. Embracing change is easier when we know what the changes are, why they are happening, the benefits they will yield and how to overcome barriers to change.

ZLDR-8953 Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging
0.3 CEUs
Unconscious (or implicit) biases are social stereotypes about certain groups of people that are formed outside of our own conscious awareness. Every person who has ever interacted with or seen another human being has unconscious biases that shape the way they view and think about other groups of people. At the individual level, these biases can negatively impact work relationships and performance. At the societal level, they can lead to an unfair and hostile environment for certain groups. Although we all have unconscious biases, it doesn’t mean we can’t control and change them. It's up to each of us to take responsibility for our own biases, as they can have harmful, real-world outcomes.
