Join us in November to conclude our monthly series of discussions focused on intentionally build a career that is both meaningful and sustainable. Do you believe that others communicate or see their roles the same way you do? Do requests from colleagues leave you feeling confused and unappreciated? Consider that we are not all the same and our communication flavors differ. Don’t let a communication gap keep you from feeling valued or effectively expressing what you need in your career.
Jill Long from Glassman Coaching will join us to facilitate an interactive workshop focused on improving communication. The workshop will use the framework of DISC, which is a communication model that examines how each of us relates to four primary communication styles. DISC helps individuals improve their communication skills and build better relationships by understanding the role of communication styles and preferences, understanding their own communication style, appreciating other communication styles, and learning how to skillfully work across difference.
To facilitate meaningful conversation and connection, this presentation will only be offered in person and will not be available via Zoom.
Jill Long has a deep background in the legal profession. A former partner at Lane Powell, Jill practiced law for almost 20 years before creating the firm’s first formal Director of Professional Development and Diversity position following a year-long fellowship with the Leadership Council for Legal Diversity. In this role, Jill became experienced in developing talent and increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Both at the firm and as a coach at Glassman, she has helped build mentoring circle programs, new partner programs, and professional development academies. Jill is trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Training with OHSU and she is a certified Integral Coach. If you ask her clients, Jill is also an amazing friend, guide, and human being.
Queen’s Bench Presentations are on the second Tuesday of the month at noon. The Queen’s Bench 2024 speaker series theme is transition, purpose, and value. We’ll explore how to identify and pursue our purpose and our values, and how to find comfort in transition and growth.
