2019-05-29 12:00 - 13:00 | UCLA Anderson School of Management, 110 Westwood Plaza Room A301, Los Angeles, 90095
Why do people have such a difficult time exhibiting self-control over time, and what strategies can promote wiser long-term decisions? In this talk, I will overview work that my team has conducted over the last ten plus years on the barriers that stand between what people say they want to do and what they will actually end up doing. Here, I highlight the tendency to view our future selves as if they are strangers, and how this tendency can have serious effects on the choices we make. I then discuss a number of solutions that have been demonstrated to help people overcome these tendencies.

Valorie Kondos Field
Former professional ballerina Valorie Kondos Field–or Miss Val, as she’s affectionately known–has never tumbled, flipped, or even played any type of organized sports, and yet she has been able to craft a legendary coaching career through curiosity, attention to detail, and unwavering care for the overall well-being of her athletes. For Miss Val, it’s not about winning and losing, it’s about choreographing your life and owning the choices you make. She took the same approach to her breast cancer diagnosis, explaining how she made that struggle into one of the best years of her life.

UCLA AMG Author Series - Go Together
2019-03-13 12:00 - 13:00 | CHS Room 13-105, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, United States
Go Together:
How the Concept of Ubuntu Will
Change How You Live, Work and Lead
The illusion that we are separate from each other, more different than similar, is eroding our ability to work, live, and lead effectively. What if we all focused on the powerful idea of ubuntu instead? This transcendent African philosophy embraces the belief that we are universally connected to each other—and author Shola Richards suggests it could transform the way we treat others, making us kinder and more respectful to others, on and off the job. Go Together is a thought-provoking read that could change our own behavior . . . and the world around us. Click here to order the book on Amazon.
Shola Richards’ life’s mission is an ambitious one: To end generations of professional suffering, simply by changing how we treat each other at work. Whether it is helping people to deal with soul-destroying bully bosses, passive-aggressive coworkers, or toxic work cultures that value competition and profit more than they value teamwork and their people–Shola is committed to leading the worldwide movement that will change all of it.
Directions to CHS 13-105: Enter the main Fielding School of Public Health entrance off Charles Young Drive South (across from NRB & Lot 9). Past the elevators, make a left. Walk down to the end of the hallway to room 13-105 CHS (end of hallway).

Project Management in the UCLA Library
2019-02-11 12:00 - 13:00 | UCLA Bunche Hall, Room 6257, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, United States
Projects can be exciting and career enhancing, but can also be difficult to juggle with one’s ongoing work. In a project-driven world, it is estimated that 70% of projects fail. It is vital to use effective project management to ensure success. In this workshop, you will learn strategies that the UCLA Library uses to help reduce the risk of project failure and balance three common project constraints—scope, schedule and budget. You will also learn about the life cycle of a project and the recommended allocation of time between planning and implementing.
The speaker, Bill Hackenberg, will also provide an overview of Agile, a new project methodology that has been used widely in software development. The principles of Agile can be applied to projects in various industries, and prove useful when project requirements are unclear. The process helps to create solutions that evolve over time. When using Agile, the team and the customer work closely to achieve better results.

2018-06-11 12:00 - 13:00 | CHS Room 23-105, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, United States
Are you your best self?
“To reshape the future we need first to better understand and reshape ourselves”

In this optimistic and inspiring book, Peter Whybrow, offers a prescription for genuine human progress. “The genetic prescription we each carry, does not alone determine our destiny: but the interaction of that prescription with family, culture, and experience certainly does.”
The Well-Tuned Brain is a call to action. Whybrow addresses significant issues related to the navigation toward a more meaningful life.
Swept along by the cascading advances of today’s technology, most of us take for granted that progress brings improvement in the workplace and in our personal lives; however, the evidence grows that we are failing to create a sustainable future for humanity. Technology itself is not the problem but rather our behavior.
Learn how to achieve success by developing the strength and wisdom of our better nature as humane social beings to help us cope with a more automated future.

Description: A highly effective team requires some important elements such as a shared purpose, common goals, trust, and collaboration. Achieving these elements may seem more challenging with five different generations populating the current workforce, each bringing their own particular approaches to work. However, understanding each generation’s motives at work and aligning their needs may alleviate potential conflicts and enhance performance levels.

Re-thinking Networking: How anyone can network successfully
2018-04-25 12:00 - 13:30 | Royce Hall, Room 314, 10745 Dickson Plaza, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, United States
Re-thinking Networking: How anyone can network successfully…

The term NETWORKING can mean different things to different people. For some, it’s a necessary chore that one (reluctantly) forces themselves to do when trying to advance their career or get a new job …and sometimes just the thought of networking gives many people anxiety. But for others, networking is part of their everyday life, both personally and professionally.
So the question is: can anyone – with any personality type – network successfully?
Absolutely!
Join this interactive workshop that will focus on how introverts, extroverts and all types of people can re-think networking as something much different – and much more fun – then how they thought of networking in the past.
You’ll change the way you think about networking. The discussion will be followed by (of course) time to network.
