Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

9. TRANSGENDER
Transgender is an umbrella term that describes one
whose gender identity or presentation does not
match their sex at birth.
Common terms:
Trans man: someone who was born with female parts
but presents as a male
Trans woman: someone who was born with male parts
but presents as a female
Androgynous: someone whose gender presentation is
somewhere in-between male and female
Agender/Genderqueer: someone whose gender
identity is not male or female; someone who doesn’t
identify with traditional gender norms
10.
11. QUESTIONS ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE
Does transgender mean gay?
No. Someone’s gender identity has nothing to do with their
sexuality. A trans person may fall anywhere on the sexuality
continuum.
How do I refer to a trans person?
Generally, you should refer to someone the same way
they refer to him/herself. In other words, if someone
says, “I’m a girl, and my name is Tina,” call that person
Tina and use she/her pronouns.
It’s okay to ask someone how they’d like to be referred
to, as long as you’re respectful.
Everyone messes up sometimes. If you use the wrong
name or pronoun, just apologize and try not to do it
again.

13. OTHER CHALLENGES FACED BY
TRANSGENDER YOUTH
Lack of access to appropriate restroom/locker room
facilities.
Make sure there is a space (whether a traditional facility
that corresponds with a person’s gender identity or a
neutral space where a person feels protected) for trans
youth to use restrooms, change clothes, etc.
Lack of confidentiality.
Trans youth may have unsupportive families or caregivers,
and may even face violence if their identity or expression is
disclosed.
Lack of role models; lack of accurate information.
Make sure transgender youth have access to resources
that address their unique struggles.
14. HOW CAN YOU BE SUPPORTIVE?
Listen without judgment.
Use appropriate language.
Use pronouns that the client prefers.
If you’re uncomfortable talking to the client about
these things, find someone who is.
Remain positive with the client.
Remain consistent in your relationship with the
client. Don’t treat them differently after they disclose
their sexuality or gender identity to you.
Allow clients to be who they are (i.e., sexual
orientation, gender identity, style of dress).
Other ways?

Drag King: A woman (often LGBT, but not necessarily) who dresses as a man for entertainment.
Cross-dresser: A person (often heterosexual, but not necessarily) who dresses outside their gender for personal reasons, not to entertain.
Transvestite: Not typically used anymore due to implied sexual or fetishistic connotations; the correct term is "cross-dresser."
Transsexual: Not typically used anymore due to negative associations with the word; the correct term is "transgender."
Allies: non-LGBTQ people who are supportive and accepting of LGBTQ people
You are entitled to your own beliefs and values; however, while at work you must adhere to Children’s Home’s core values and beliefs.
We are not in any way trying to change your values and beliefs no matter what they are. We are asking you to be respectful of everyone regardless of their differences.
Even if you have not worked with a client or co-worker that identifies as LGBTQ, you may in the future and you need to be competent in how to work with that client or co-worker so as not to offend them. Closing yourself off to working with the LGBTQ population can cause you lose to valuable opportunities for personal and professional growth or helping someone in need.
Share a story about a LGBTQ person that has been affected by bullying or discrimination. Ask the group if they have any stories they’d like to share with the group. The story doesn’t have to be about you, it can be about someone you know or a client you have worked with.
People’s attraction to others can change as they get older.
Heteroflexibility is a form of a sexual orientation or situational sexual behavior characterized by minimal homosexual activity despite a primarily heterosexual sexual orientation that is considered to distinguish it from bisexuality. From Wikipedia
HIV-Gay, bisexual and other men having sex with men (MSM) are most severely affected by HIV/AIDS. This is caused from men having unprotected sex with other men.
Reparative/Conversion Therapy- “Sexual orientation conversion therapy refers to counseling and psychotherapy to attempt to eliminate individuals’ sexual desires for members of their own sex. Ex-gay ministry refers to the religious groups that use religion to attempt to eliminate those desires. Typically, sexual orientation conversion therapy is promoted by providers who have close ties to religious institutions and organizations. Some religion-based organizations such as Focus on the Family have invested significant resources in the promotion of sexual orientation conversion therapy and ex-gay ministries to educators and young people in conferences, in advertising, and in the media.” http://www.apa.org
Terms like transvestite, tranny, he-she, she-male, etc. are insulting and hurtful. They are considered slurs and are not acceptable to use at any time.
For you, gender might be simple. For some people, it’s not. Though it can feel overwhelming to learn about these things, try to imagine how it feels for someone who is struggling to understand their own identity.
Here is a simplified version of basic gender principles to help you remember the differences.
Sex=body parts. Identity=how you feel inside. Attraction=who you love. Expression=how you show these things.
Intentionally misgendering someone (ex. calling a trans woman a man, or using the wrong name on purpose) is abuse. Everyone makes mistakes, but repeatedly refusing to use someone’s preferred pronouns or name is harmful to that person.
Never ask someone about their genital/sex assignment surgery status, especially a child. That’s personal information and should have nothing to do with the way you interact with them.
Can you pick out the trans person or people in this collage?
All of them are famous trans people.
Pictures (Left to Right):
Top Row- Chaz Bono, son of Cher and Sonny Bono; Lea T, Brazilian supermodel; Balian Buschbaum, former Olympic pole vaulter from Germany; Jenna Talackova, Canadian contestant in the Miss Universe pagaent
Bottom Row- Kim Coco Iwamoto, Hawaiian politician; Laverne Cox, actress; Janet Mock, former editor of People.com; Katastrophe (stage name of rapper Rocco Kayitos), hip hop artist and producer
Will I know if someone is trans?
Not always. Some people will disclose their gender identity to you, but some won’t. It’s important to remember that only the individual in question has the right to disclose their identity; you don’t.
Have transgender people always existed?
Yes! Trans people have been documented in most Western and non-Western cultures from ancient times to the present.
Don’t necessarily segregate a trans youth from bathrooms or locker rooms. Talk to them to find out if they’re comfortable using the shared facility, and provide an alternative space if they’re not.
