Deep Dive: Keeping the Magic: Maintaining Your Passion When Your Passion Becomes Your Job

Nov 19 2024

9:30 AM - 11:00 AM CST

Understanding your workplace, your responsibilities, your team, and your passion.  Run Specialty isn’t about being the next Bill Gates, it’s about being positively engaged with  your community, physically, mentally, and emotionally.  It’s about connecting with the people, the kids, and the environment.  But what happens when your passion becomes your job?  What happens when your job becomes your burden?  What tools can you use to effectively navigate the difficulties that come with working in Run Specialty while keeping your passion in your career?  How can you help yourself turn around your perspective and mental framework to keep yourself excited and engaged each and every day as an owner, buyer, manager, director, or sales team?  How do you discover ways to drive your passions and avoid the pitfalls of toxic workplace behaviors and mindsets.  This workshop looks to provide employees with the necessary tools to drive their behavior modification as well as to positively influence and educate others in their sphere of influence through the use of positive and negative reinforcement, and motivation theory.

Session Learning Objectives:

1.) Recognize the symptoms of toxic mindsets and loss of focus on your passion. 
2.) Recognize signs of eustress and distress, both extrinsically and intrinsically.
3.) How to develop and tweak your environment to positively change on a daily basis.
