  Summer is often a time for relaxation and rejuvenation—something that we really need this year!  With that in mind, five organizations have come together to present The Music Paradigm—a fascinating—and fun—look at a different kind of leader-team interaction.

  When you see your environment through fresh eyes, suddenly what had been assumed as entrenched can offer opportunities for renewed engagement, alignment and creativity.  The Music Paradigm illuminates how musicians resolve issues and lift their collective performance in ways that readily translate far outside symphony hall.  Through a behind-the-scenes review of recorded performances and a real-time, live demonstration, you will gain insights into the unique connection between a conductor and professional musicians. 
  
  
  

  The session will be followed with networking to discuss the program—providing an opportunity to meet with colleagues across North America!

  It’s never been more important - or more challenging - for employees at all levels of the enterprise to remain focused, energized, productive and optimistic, that is, to be resilient. More than four decades of research at the University of Pennsylvania and at Adaptiv Learning Systems have proven that highly resilient people outperform – and outlast – their less resilient peers, and that resilience can be measured and boosted through training.

  This brief session will introduce you to a proven method to boost your own energy, optimism and productivity despite the high levels of uncertainty and increasing pace of change at work and in our lives at large. You’ll learn a foundational skill that will help you better manage your emotions so you can feel better and do better at work and in the rest of life. Dean Becker, Adaptiv Learning Systems founder and creator of this program, will facilitate our session.
