People can attend or experience the same event, but each individual will describe it very differently. Some people will be impacted deeply by something that seemed only trivial to another.
The differences are in perspective, and a new workshop from the Management Development Center at Fort Hays State University will offer insight and skills in understanding and accommodating different perspectives.
“Through a Different Lens: Understanding Perspective,” is designed to increase understanding of the four dimensions of the diversity wheel and how personality is at the very core of understanding one’s self and others and is also important in developing powerful emotional intelligence.
The MDC will offer “Understanding Perspective” from 1 to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 21, in Hansen Entrepreneurship Hall on the FHSU campus.
Dr. Jeni McRay, assistant professor of leadership studies, will teach skills in maximizing self-awareness and awareness of others in both personal and professional settings.
Each person who completes the workshop will receive a completion certificate and 0.3 continuing education units. The cost for the workshop is $119. Hays Area Chamber of Commerce members can call to receive a discount code for 15 percent off registration.
Registration is available online at www.fhsu.edu/mdc. To learn more about this workshop or additional upcoming trainings, contact Hannah Hilker by phone at 785-628-4121 or by email at hehilker@fhsu.edu.
