About the Managing in a Brave New World Series: “Brave” and “manage” have always been words that go together. And our world today requires more bravery, more self-awareness, more intentionality than ever before. In this 10-part series, “Managing in a Brave New World,” we’ll delve into many areas of management…and a few areas regarding the manager (that would be you!). These are standalone webinars, so you can attend one or all – and of course, we suggest you attend all to get the most benefit! Description of this webinar: When was the last time you took a step back and found ways to feed your soul, to grow your own world in whatever way helps you feel settled in your work and your life? Yesterday? Last year? NEVER?? Let’s fix that by looking at ways we can stay vital and energized in our work by growing ourselves! Academic Library staff will be interested in this webinar because even though our entire function is centered on helping others grow, we don’t always take an opportunity to do the same for ourselves. Public Library staff will find this webinar beneficial because being surrounded by every known method of personal growth (or so it would seem!), we rarely take the time to make sure we are part of the “growth equation” we so easily provide for others. School Librarians and Media Specialists will benefit from this webinar because it’s fitting to make sure WE are growing as we are encouraging others to do so. Then we will be walking our own talk, as we encourage others to follow suit. Special Libraries will be interested in this webinar because it can become comfortable to think that what we continue to learn about our special area is ALL there is to learn in our growth journey. Let’s take an opportunity to discover what additional areas might be available.
