When employees are asked what would enhance their experience at work, two needs stand out: clearer communication and more effective leadership.
In this session, we’ll focus on how to build the leadership skills that matter most by using the power of emotional intelligence.
You’ll learn about building empathetic leadership skills by using mindfulness to strengthen self-awareness and self-regulation.
You’ll also learn practical ways to improve communication and engage with others with greater empathy and clarity.

Learn About the Career Planning SIG!
Resumes tell people what you have done. Portfolios show how you did it. In this session, we’ll discuss options for creating a professional portfolio containing your work samples, the kinds of things you might want to include, and options for showcasing your skillset in a way that aligns with your career goals.
Let’s prioritize ourselves and our professional growth—together.

AI, green technology, and augmented reality aren’t just buzzwords—they’re transforming industries and redefining the skills organizations need to thrive.
Technical experts drive this innovation, but when they struggle to communicate their ideas clearly, it can lead to stalled projects, missed opportunities, and diminished collaboration.
For L&D professionals, this is a strategic opportunity: equipping technical staff with strong presentation and communication skills amplifies their impact and accelerates organizational success.
In this session, you’ll learn why speaker training for technical professionals should be a priority and how to design programs that deliver measurable value.
