Thought Leadership for Social Change - Raising Your Voice in 140 Characters o...Vanessa Wakeman
Many people try to capture public consciousness for a purpose, but few become true thought leaders. As agents of change, most leaders of small nonprofits or social enterprises understand the importance of building support for those ideas and issues that impact the community-at-large.
Thought leadership represents an opportunity to move the needle on an issue. It allows an individual or an organization to leverage an often-overlooked asset – intellectual capital to build awareness and create important dialogues.
Thanks to social media, today there are ways to connect with stakeholders, allowing for more expedient connections and sharing of ideas. Creating a plan of action around the specific topic that you want to speak on and finding the appropriate channels to share it can help you to create a strong leadership platform.
This workshop will explore ways to harness big ideas, interject your opinion and create dialogues and connection that lead to change.
We will review the basics of creating a thought leadership platform and leveraging your assets on social media to build community and awareness.
Discombobulation, Fire-Breathing Dragons and Wet Noodles: Creating Productive...bkoloski
The document provides tips for facilitating productive workshops in difficult situations. It discusses strategies for dealing with scenarios such as low participation, dominance by one participant, negative attitudes, stakeholder shutdown, participant misbehavior, fixed mindsets, and lack of consensus. Suggestions include drawing out silent participants, using structured activities, setting ground rules, validating different opinions, and deciding how to manage time constraints. The document also proposes specific workshop activities focused on user research, empathy, prioritization, and innovation.
This document provides tips for facilitating productive workshops in difficult situations. It discusses strategies for dealing with lack of participation, dominance by one participant, negative attitudes, disagreement, and time management issues. Suggested activities include pair and share exercises, dot voting, empathy maps, and design games to engage participants and work through challenges. The overall message is for the facilitator to own the process, share ownership of outcomes, and adapt activities as needed to achieve workshop goals.
The document discusses the principles of improvisation and their application to creativity and collaboration. It outlines three pillars of improv - creativity, communication, and collaboration. Seven elements of improv are also described: yes, and; ensemble; co-creation; authenticity; failure; follow the follower; and listening. Exercises are provided for each element to practice improv skills. The document argues that business and improv are similar in needing to create and work in teams under pressure.
This document provides advice on how to influence others without direct authority. It recommends first listening to understand others' needs, wants, and definitions of success and failure. Norm-setting exercises can establish expectations for how groups will work together. Understanding different cultural maps and communication styles is also important. Speaking the language of the environment and finding ways to frame individual and group goals as shared ("make an US") can help build influence. Self-awareness of strengths, weaknesses, body language and how one is perceived by others also plays a role in wielding soft power over hard power.

Talk by Sue Johnston and Declan Whelan at Agile & Beyond, Ypsilanti, MI, May 5, 2016
The stereotype of engineers and technical professionals as inarticulate, socially inept geniuses inventing problems to solve is not just unkind. It's inaccurate. (OK, maybe not the "genius" part.) Yet the Dilbert image persists. So do jokes like the one about the engineer sentenced to death on the guillotine, who watches the instrument of death malfunction, then tells the operators how to fix it. In this interactive session, we'll show a little empathy for engineers and other analytical folk whose neurological wiring makes them seem different from the rest of humanity. We'll also explore how those with the engineering mindset can consciously adopt behaviours that amplify their value to their teams and organizations - and make their lives easier by positioning themselves for understanding. The analytical mind is particularly valuable when we can turn it off and adopt the perspective of the person we're talking with. Technical professionals are excellent at finding solutions to problems. Unfortunately, searching for the perfect solution to the interesting problem we see can prevent us from seeing other problems that stand in the way of value for others. True collaboration and value creation invite us to see through the lenses of end users and sponsors and help them connect the dots. In this interactive presentation, you will discover: - how to make your ideas meaningful to others by taking their perspective - how shifting your language from "What?" to "So What?" helps people connect your dots - why giving up the need to be smart may be the smartest thing you ever do Join Declan, a professional engineer and developer, and Sue, a communication coach, in a lively discussion of what can happen when engineers and technical professionals shift their mindset from solving problems to creating impact.
The document provides tips on how to handle people effectively, make people like you, win people over to your way of thinking, lead and change people without offense, stop worrying and start living, analyze worry, and develop a good personality.

Philstar Virtual Leadership Summit - Building TeamsTricia Elamparo
Bienvenido Policarpio, President of Dale Carnegie Training, presents a handful of principles on how to effectively motivate teams and build your leadership potential.
How do you share your ideas with others? How can a leader communicate their ideas more clearly with their key stakeholders?

This presentation shows you how to do this effectively.
This booklet was used by Ishwar Agarwal, Gyanu Karki, and Talha Rehman at the IMPACT National Conference 2017 to facilitate a Design Thinking workshop to address a social problem, Obesity. In particular, the attendees designed solutions of their partner's fast food consumption, which is a major cause of obesity. This workshop was adopted from Stanford d.school's gift giving experience: https://dschool.stanford.edu/groups/designresources/wiki/ed894/the_giftgiving_project.html
Brainstorming is a technique where a group or individual gathers ideas spontaneously to find a conclusion for a specific problem. There are two types: individual brainstorming where one person brainstorms alone, and group brainstorming where developing ideas in depth with others. Effective group brainstorming requires having a clear objective, recording all ideas without criticism or interruptions. Brainstorming encourages creative thinking and participation but works best with a focused group and facilitator.

Don't Change A Thing: Why Your Style is EXACTLY What Your Project, Team, & Or...Leslie Stein
Original session description when presented at ASHP Midyear Conference (Anaheim, CA; December 2014):
Description:
You are a success. Yes. YOU! Think about it, you’ve overcome every single obstacle ever put in front of you to be standing (or sitting) where you are today. Every. Single. One. So why not admit you’ve got it going on? That you do indeed know what you’re doing and have figure out a secret to success?!
Did you catch that? A secret to success…not THE secret to success. Where most of us fail is not in our brilliance, but in how we share our message with others. This session is designed to do two things around that issue.
First, it will increase your awareness of the styles, traits, & superpowers YOU actually poses. Because you cannot consciously use what you don’t know about. Second, it will help you better understand OTHERS and how you might make tweaks or alter your approach to get them on board to achieve your goals instead of resisting you every step of the way.
As a result of this session, attendees will:
· Increase self-awareness of their styles, traits, & superpowers
· Better understand the strengths of other styles & how to adjust when working with them
· Learn how to frame & present their ideas in new ways
· Interact with all the styles to share inspiration, insight, & secrets of success
This document discusses the concepts of strength, talent, knowledge, and skill. It defines strength as a consistent near-perfect performance in an activity. Talent refers to recurring patterns of thought, feeling, or behavior that can be productively applied. Knowledge includes factual knowledge that can be taught, as well as experiential knowledge gained through experience. Skill refers to capabilities that can be transferred between people and developed through practice. The document emphasizes that to excel, one must maximize their strengths rather than focus on fixing weaknesses.
This document discusses soft skills and the Enneagram personality typing system. It explains that soft skills are interpersonal skills important for relationships and job performance, while hard skills are specific abilities. The document then describes a staff training session on the Enneagram where participants learned about the 9 personality types and identified their own. After the training, the staff reported improved workplace relationships and productivity by better understanding individual differences and strengths. The document encourages reading more about the Enneagram and taking a quiz to identify types.

Becoming 'we' in the wake of the AnthropoceneErinma Ochu
Ten minute talk at Invisible Dust's Under Her Eye Climate Symposium focused on creative activism by artists and academics considering care as part of intellectual work.
Short talk given at BlackSTEAM focused on how black contributions to science, engineering, the arts and mathematics have inspired me as a young person, researcher and educator.
Short talk given at the Use Environmental Data Responsibly conference in Glasgow. The talk focused on how citizens can make extraordinary contributions to environmental research science, through taking part in scientific research focused around sunflowers, the weather and breathing. It draws parallels to the value of storing and making public data about the environment, to artists who make work about the environment, and the way that we value those works of art. Weaving stories and images from the birth of the environmental movement and the civil rights movement, the final part of the talk focuses on how data and stories about the environment might be valued and shared in the same way that galleries care about and make art part of our national heritage.

Citizen social science - solving social challengesErinma Ochu
This document discusses citizen science, which involves members of the public collaborating with scientists on research projects. It describes benefits like improved quality of life and decision making through increased knowledge. Examples include crowdsourcing to analyze patterns in nature, and engaging the public to learn about math concepts. Challenges discussed include ensuring data quality, funding, recognizing public contributions, and measuring social impact. Ethical considerations around collaboration, ownership, and reviewing projects are also outlined. References are provided on topics like levels of participation, working at the "edge" of knowledge, and everyday ethics in community-based research.

Wellcome Trust Engagement Fellow, Erinma Ochu draws on her varied experience as writer, biomedical scientist and filmmaker and invites people to explore ‘the social life of archives’
Citizen science involves members of the public participating in scientific research projects in various ways. It can involve unpaid volunteers simply contributing data to projects, but may also allow for more extensive co-creation, where public groups participate in designing studies, methods, and analysis. Crowdsourcing utilizes the collective intelligence of large groups online to analyze large datasets or solve complex problems. Examples discussed include projects in neuroscience that use crowdsourcing to analyze brain images. The document outlines opportunities, challenges and definitions around different models of citizen science. It provides resources for those interested in learning more or getting involved in related projects and discussions.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17Celine George
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
