2021 Back-to-School In-Service (Education Center Staff) by Dana Lynch https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr Celebrating 50 Years of Success en-us 2021-08-10 15:10:11 UTC 2023-03-10 19:28:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/1235396073/33851e6a8b537fca1cec70610f84def7/NOCROPcasualmark.png The subject was different than normal. I feel like I learned new information from these two presenters. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674383026 2021-08-10 17:14:01 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674383026 I wonder why we had two presenters in one day and not one presenter for the entire 4 hours? And the other presenter another day. I felt both presentations were amazing, but rushed. I would have liked to spend the 4 hours completely developing the concepts from one presenter at a time in greater detail https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674386879 2021-08-10 17:17:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674386879 An Aha moment for me was seeing the different personality types and how we all have a little of all quadrants. Helped me understand myself a bit more too. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674388043 2021-08-10 17:18:32 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674388043 I plan to self-reflect more from this and look at things from a different perspective. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674388908 2021-08-10 17:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674388908 Please bring both presenters back especially Paul and let us further develop his concepts and further develop ourselves for the good of the organization. Also, it might be better for Leadership not to participate. Some staff are intimidated by their supervisors and will not be authentic in their participation and growth. Also, allow staff to pick their groups, one will open up more if they feel comfortable with those they are working with. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674391953 2021-08-10 17:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674391953 The investment in... https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674440156 I believe professional development for all staff is critical in better supporting the organization's mission. It would be awesome to have more opportunities like this.]]> 2021-08-10 18:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674440156 Community is everything https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674450321 When we invest in our professional community (workplace), I believe both staff and leadership feel empowered to accomplish our organization's mission. This in-service was encouraging and I would love to see follow-ups to it. ]]> 2021-08-10 18:18:41 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674450321 tgiamarino https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674450327 I appreciate the investment into my/our professional growth. I enjoyed the morning with my team and what I learned about myself. ]]> 2021-08-10 18:18:41 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674450327 tgiamarino https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674452700 I would like to know more about each topic. I felt that the experience with my team was great. I felt supported and listened to. I learned how to communicate better and listen. I appreciate the humor and being able to laugh with my team. It's important to build more communicative teams.]]> 2021-08-10 18:20:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674452700 tgiamarino https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674454480 I learned that communication is important and that the way I am perceived matters. My "a-ha" is I appreciate my team even more and the investment ROP is making in my PD.]]> 2021-08-10 18:22:41 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674454480 tgiamarino https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674455198 To listen more and to see things from others' perpectives.]]> 2021-08-10 18:23:26 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674455198 Thank you https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674456134 Thank you to everyone who helped put this in-service event together (decor, food, agendas, materials, speakers, etc.). I'd love to see more events like these centered on professional growth and organizational community development. ]]> 2021-08-10 18:24:24 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674456134 tgiamarino https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674457720 It was so nice to have a morning dedicated to us. I enjoyed sitting with my team and having time to get to know them more. I appreciate that everyone was open and a lot of laughing was happening. I liked that we were seated with our team and am thankful for the time put into making this happen. I hope we can continue to have dedicated PD for the EC classified staff. Thank you]]> 2021-08-10 18:25:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674457720 jreddick2 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674458524 My "aha" moment was the strategy to promote intrinsic motivation by focusing on instilling a sense of belonging, sense of being needed, and sense of pride. ]]> 2021-08-10 18:26:46 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674458524 jreddick2 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674472320 Paul was great! I appreciated the way he brought humor to the topics. I would love to have him back to continue developing the concepts he presented.]]> 2021-08-10 18:40:01 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674472320 I appreciated how we were able to come together as an organization to evaluate our strengths and weaknesses. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674566622 2021-08-10 20:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674566622 I wonder if leadership will take a deeper dive into strengthening organizational trust and efficacy. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674569241 2021-08-10 20:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674569241 The presenters reminded me to NEVER stop reflecting on my actions and how they positively or negatively affect others. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674570976 2021-08-10 20:35:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674570976 I plan to continue to remind myself that I work with a diverse group of wonderful people. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674572900 2021-08-10 20:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674572900 Thank you for forcing me to look into my inner soul and work on what I can do better. https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674573864 2021-08-10 20:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1674573864 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675593101 After an engaging and interesting morning session, I found it difficult to refocus on regular tasks in the afternoon. I would have enjoyed staying in "training mode" the remainder of the day. Since the 2 speakers were strong and brought up great topics, I think an afternoon portion could have allowed for productive teambuilding. ]]> 2021-08-11 15:08:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675593101 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675598450 I enjoyed the variety of interactions, meaning the opportunity to connect with our departments, as well as mix up and interact with fellow employees outside of our departments. ]]> 2021-08-11 15:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675598450 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675963777 I appreciated the opportunity to team build and get to know my coworkers in a different capacity. Thank you to the Leadership team for preparing a professional development for the EC staff! I look forward to what's next. ]]> 2021-08-11 20:47:12 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1675963777 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677218545 I thoroughly enjoyed the first speaker.  He had an innovative way of getting us to look at ourselves and each other.  When we broke into 1,2,3,4 I have to admit that I was surprised with
co-workers outcomes as I felt that I would have placed them in a different category. It was eye-opening. I didn't feel that I learned anything from the 2nd speaker that hasn't already been covered in other trainings.]]> 2021-08-12 18:43:06 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677218545 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677220977 I appreciated that Classified employees were included with a fun speaker that engaged everyone and helped us learn about ourselves and our co-workers.]]> 2021-08-12 18:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677220977 https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677224155 I have always said that communication is the key to a good relationship whether it is personal or working. When only 1 person is engaged in the conversation it is obvious that 1 of the involved parties isn't interested or that you aren't that important to the individual. I have noticed that there are/were a lot of communication blockages and I am hoping that the speaker has opened some eyes.]]> 2021-08-12 18:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/dlynch57/8mfsqz5r7okck9pr/wish/1677224155
