2:15pm  Taming Your Gmail Inbox with Colin Fletcher
Gmail is a popular and powerful service for managing your email, but its default settings can easily lead to email overload.   If you keenly feel the weight of thousands of emails in your inbox, sometimes miss important email amongst the newsletters, regularly re-mark email as unread to remember it later, or just generally have a stress response when typing 'gmail.com', this workshop is for you.  Learn a better way to manage your email, and save the stress for tax season.

3:15 pm  Build More Effective Relationships using Everything DiSC with Cyndi Goodjohn of www.discprofilecanada.com
The tools learned in this presentation can be used with everyone in an organization, regardless of title or role, to build more effective relationships—one relationship at a time—and improve the quality of the workplace.  By attending this session you'll discover a "quick and dirty" snapshot of who you are and what makes you tick.  From there you'll learn how to understand how to better relate to other personalities and how to "people read" anyone you encounter.  If you attend this workshop, we'll offer you a complimentary opportunity to complete the Everything DiSC Workplace profile which will provide you with 20-pages of personalized information that explores the priorities that drive YOU!
