Description

COVID has greatly impacted our workforce from keeping some people out of work due illness to helping others make the decision to leave their positions.  Workplace personnel shortages are causing organizations to try to keep the same level of operations but with less team members.  Through this workshop, participants will explore ways to optimize brain processing so employees can be more productive in less time and with less stress.

Who Should Attend?

Anyone who is interested in learning to increase productivity and increase their expertise and confidence in the work they do.
