Empowered Leadership — Registration Closed!

Presented by Sheila Savar

Dinner Meeting (Baltimore, MD)
Project Management Institute (PMI) Baltimore and Silver Spring Chapters, along with host UMBC Training Centers are bringing students and PMI members together. For students, it’s a chance to learn from PMI members the importance of project management to their careers and how PMI can be of value to them. For PMI members, it’s a chance to embrace the student community at UMBC and determine how PMI can better serve their needs. In addition, Mrs. Sheila Savar will be presenting Empowered Leadership: How well do you understand YOU? Are you aware of your own behaviors and how they impact every conversation and relationship? Do you know the triggers that influence these behaviors? Is it possible to improve your relationship with others by first recognizing then modifying your own thoughts and behaviors? What drives your behavior – is it the external event or is it something else? How can you changing help, when it’s the behavior of others that creates your pain? These questions and more are answered in EmPowered Leadership where you learn that constructive conversations, honest communications and harmonious relationships cannot begin without a greater understanding of YOU.
