Aligning these skills with an individual’s values and strengths empowers them to be a positive change agent in the world, uplifting people within and outside a single organization. This four-part series of bite-sized learning webinars are designed to build key skills as a change maker. Participants will have the opportunity to attend the webinars live or on demand.
