Special Event

"Finding Your Passion: How to Become More Engaged at Work" Workshops

Aug 18 8:00 AM to 11:30 AM or

Aug 19 8:00 AM to 11:30 AM (you choose)

Twin Cities (TBD)

How would it change your life if you could find a greater sense of purpose at work?  What would it mean if you could increase your level of job satisfaction today? What if the answers to these questions were already inside you?

Most people search their whole lives trying to find a job that they can fall in love with.  A job that makes the most of their skills, experience, and character qualities.  The reality is, however, that less than 16% (1 in 6) of us will ever find such a position.  So, what does it take to become one of the few people who love what they do?   In a word, the answer is passion.  Passion is the driving force behind thriving at work (and in our personal lives).  It bridges the gap between mearly existing to being fully engaged at work. 

The Minnesota Council for Quality is pleased to offer two half-day workshops Aug 18 and 19 (you choose) in the Twin Cities that will help you come alive at work: "How to Become More Engaged at Work" Workshop.  Both sessions will be facilitated by Jack Mateffy of Mateffy & Company (who sold out two Performance Improvement Network sessions and one Rochester Area Quality Council session this spring!).

These dynamic half-day learning experiences will show you how to build the work life you’ve always wanted.  It will change the way you look at your job and give you time to refocus and plan for a more fulfilling future.  Using fun and powerful accelerated adult learning tools, such as mind mapping, attention density, moments of insight, and brain pattern redevelopment, participants find this workshop extremely interactive, compelling, and in many cases, life changing.  So whether you are interested in identifying and tapping your own passion at work or at home, and/or you are a leader who could benefit from helping your staff find and tap theirs, take the first step toward a more engaged work life by attending one of these two workshops!

Workshops are Wed, August 18 OR Thurs, Aug 19 (you choose) at a location in the Twin Cities.  Cost is $150 for Council members ($250 for non-members), plus $40 for workshop materials.

*******************************

Through this interactive workshop, you’ll:

• Appreciate how the need for employee engagement has grown and is changing the workplace.
• The link between your engagement level and feeling challenged, living healthfully, being creative, improving productivity, and being less tempted to leave.
• Learn what it takes to build a fully engaged, truly motivating work life.
• Discover exactly what  gets you excited about getting to work by playing the Passionwerx™ What Are You Passionate About At Work?© Card Game.
• Become more engaged immediately by designing and using a personal engagement plan.
• Consider how your physical and emotional energy levels impact your ability to be engaged at work.

My experience participating in the workshop was very positive. It was great to be in the room with a group of passionate people. What the Passionwex™ training has taught me is that I need to be true to myself and to understand the things that really motivate me deep down.  If I’m true to those passions I’ll be more successful and a lot more content in what I’m doing.  My career path would have looked a lot different had I understood what those passions were when I started working.
