SUMMARY:IN PERSON-How to Have Fun in 2024
DESCRIPTION:March 26th 10am-4pm \nIN PERSON AT IAC \nMembers $140/Non Members $190\nIn 2024 it is really important for people to enjoy what they do in order to be committed to what they do. We often think of work as a four-letter word\, but it is so much more. If you can make the job of a DSP more fun and interesting you will retain staff longer\, create a better environment\, and you won’t dread going into work yourself. This class is to help find the fun in what we do rather than the ugh!

SUMMARY:POSTPONED! IN PERSON- Picking the Battles
DESCRIPTION:THIS TRAINING WILL BE RESCHEDULED \nIN PERSON AT IAC \nMembers $140/Non Members $170\nDon’t sweat the small stuff and a lot of what happens is small stuff. Managers are advocates for the people we support and the program itself. Some battles you need to “go to the mattresses” and others you need to let go. This class will help you determine where you need to put your resources. What battles you can let go of\, what battles you need to pick up\, and where you need to find alternate approaches. As a manager we cannot solve every problem nor can we be everything to everyone. However\, we can create tools to help manage best case scenarios.
