The Web of Brilliance ERG and Institute Diversity present the workshop "Introversion as an Ally," with Neith Sankofa.

Interacting with leaders and influencers across many social and cultural lines is a marker of a seasoned professional. Being able to be present, flexible and “in-the-moment” while doing so is a marker of a fully empowered, exceptional professional.

But what happens when there are challenges… like being an introvert? It begins with recognizing introversion as an ally to the type of insights that create full empowerment because of an introvert’s innate ability to be or become internally aware.

In this workshop participants will recognize when they (and others) have switched to “automatic” in their interactions. Through integration exercises, participants will uncover how to counterbalance the tendency to fall into unconscious role-playing (due to the stress of introversion) by authentically engaging their target audiences for maximum success. By getting in touch with what they need and feel, and creating a toolkit for counterbalancing, they will begin to create more ideal conditions for themselves in any situation through expanded internal awareness.

Free and open to Georgia Tech Staff and Faculty, but seats are very limited. You must register to attend.

Refreshments provided. Introverts, Extroverts, and everyone in between are welcome.
