<H3><SPAN><SPAN><STRONG><SPAN>Title: The Practice of Well-Being: Living Purposefully and Creating Healthy Cultures  </SPAN></STRONG></SPAN></SPAN></H3>
<P>Description: The reality is that some factors that affect our health, happiness, and performance fall outside our control. There are also aspects of well-being over which we can have direct influence -- this is the emphasis of an unconditional approach to life and leadership. We can learn to focus our energy in support of our most important goals, values, and relationships. We can use attention skillfully and relate purposefully and peacefully to what is going on within us and what is going on around us. This interactive and engaging workshop will lay the foundation for a research-based practice that can be integrated into daily life. </P>
<H3><STRONG>About Dave</STRONG></H3>
<P>Dave helps people live and work more consciously so they can experience the well-being, growth and connection they seek. He partners with individuals, couples, teams and organizations to focus attention and energy where it will make the greatest positive difference. Following his keynote, Dave will be leading workshops during which participants will apply his framework to the use of Folio.<EM> </EM></P>
<P><SPAN>Dave received his B.A. from Williams College, Masters in Humanistic Education from SUNY New Paltz, and completed a clinical internship in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center.

<H3><STRONG>Title: Fall in love with feedback!</STRONG><BR></H3>
<P>The art of feedback remains an elusive challenge for many leaders in education. In this two-hour workshop, we will practice giving and receiving feedback by applying communication strategies inspired by <A HREF="https://www.cnvc.org/about-us" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Marshall Rosenberg’s Non-Violent Communication Model</A>. Participants will also learn about the ratio of positive to constructive feedback and its effect on teams, reflect on the relationship between feedback and courageous leadership, and understand how to apply feedback to support the development of other educators.</P>
<H3><STRONG>About Kate</STRONG></H3>

<HR>
<H2><STRONG>Program</STRONG></H2>
<P>We are designing workshops and other sessions in order to provide a range of activities to enhance the work of growing and developing faculty and staff. Members of the Folio team and school leaders from the Collaborative will be leading these discussions. Recent topics have included goal setting, feedback and observation, coaching, reflective practices, and difficult conversations.  </P>
<HR>
<H2><STRONG>Call for Proposals </STRONG></H2>
<H3><STRONG>What’s your Folio Story? Can you tell it in 5 minutes?</STRONG> <STRONG>Or, do you have an idea for a 1-hour workshop?</STRONG></H3>
<P>If so, we are looking for you. All schools benefit when members share their user experiences, and according to feedback from previous years, these presentations are a Summer Institute highlight. This year, we are seeking two types of proposals at The Summer Institute. One is a quick and engaging 5-minute presentation highlighting your school's unique application of Folio, or a best practice related to faculty growth and evaluation. If you have an idea for a longer workshop, we are excited to provide that opportunity this year. Workshop facilitators will have an opportunity to engage other Folio members around a unique application of Folio or a pivotal faculty growth experience with members of the Collaborative. You may propose more than one session, but please submit separate online applications for each. You can submit your proposal by clicking <A HREF="https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Y8J98SH" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here.<BR></A></P>
