Organizational Development
Intermediate Management: Handling Burnout, Conflict, and Safer Spaces
Ready to go beyond the basics of being a student manager? Come to this workshop and get the tools to tackle some of the more challenging issues you will face. We will focus on issues that can disrupt your office and the productivity of your employees including staff burnout and handling conflict between employees. We will also go over what it means to have a safer office space for all employees and what a manager can do to make sure that happens. *THIS TRAINING IS ALSO APPLICABLE TO ROOMMATE CONFLICT & RESOLUTION, AND ENSURING A RESPECTFUL ENVIRONMENT. *
Advocacy
Effective Testimony & Personal Story Telling
Facts can win arguments, but personal stories and testimony make movements. One of the strongest assets the student movement has is a wealth of personal stories that highlight the need for a more affordable and accessible college education. Participants will learn how to frame their message and story, the standard guidelines for legislative testimony, and get an opportunity to practice and refine their story. *THIS TRAINING IS ALSO HELPFUL WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CONVEY YOUR STORY TO BOSSES, PROFESSORS, ADMIN OR EVEN OTHER STUDENTS!*

Why We Vote & Lobby
