UHS Resiliency and Leadership Workshop Series: Growth Mindset and Being Given Being and Action by Something Bigger than Oneself

Description

UHS Wellness is sponsoring a four-part workshop series, facilitated by Sel J. Hwahng and David Makonnen. This one is on "Growth Mindset and Being Given Being and Action by Something Bigger than Oneself."

A growth mindset is characterized by learning from mistakes, embracing one's boundaries, and readily asking for support. In this workshop, we will explore the alignment between a growth mindset and living your life where you are committed to something beyond your personal concerns.

In this series, discover new ways of being and acting to expand your resiliency and leadership. You can participate in one or more of these workshops held via Zoom. Each workshop will consist of a short lecture, discussion in small groups (breakout sessions) as well as a large group, and reflection exercises. Learn more about the series.
