Effectively Managing Change

The first two days of this year’s conference will focus on dealing effectively with the rapid pace of change that is characterizing our professional and personal lives.  Our facilitator, Ms. Cindy Kubica—contracted through Rockhurst University’s Continuing Educational Center and a featured speaker of the National Seminars Program—will take participants through a program that will focus on understanding and effectively dealing with the physical and emotional stress that accompanies both personal and professional change.   She will work with participants as leaders who must be able to effectively and strategically communicate with colleagues and customers so as to create a positive school culture and a work environment that harnesses the power of change.
