Pre-LDP Summit Workshop #2: "Improving Associate and Manager Selection"

Improving Associate and Manager Selection 

Have you ever lost a program associate because he couldn’t handle the stress?  Or perhaps an associate wasn't assertive enough to win support for her good ideas, and went unrecognized.  Maybe you've brought an assignment manager into your program with low impulse control, and learned to regret it.  Professional success - and particularly leadership - is associated with high levels of emotional intelligence.  The challenge is that emotional intelligence attributes are far more challenging to develop than skill-based competencies - making it critical to screen for them on the way in.  How can you select for emotional intelligence attributes in your program associates and managers that will support your program's mission?

Join this interactive pre-conference workshop to improve your recruitment of program participants and assignment managers. Learn about how emotional intelligence influences your program's success, and how you can screen for it.  Walk away with tools to help you uncover the emotional intelligence attributes important to your program.
