FORMERLY DPS 15351 CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP
With so many organizations vying for sponsorship from the same limited pool of resources, who you target and how you define shared value opportunities defines the success of a campaign. This course is designed from both a buyer and seller perspective and leads participants through the sponsorship marketing process.
Participants will develop an understanding of the strategic and practical elements of corporate sponsorship through a comprehensive exploration of sponsorship marketing. Topics will include relationship building, sponsor selection and confirmation, proposal writing, inventory and activation, financial, legal, and ethical considerations, and evaluation.
All of us deal with anger. We get angry at others including our own children, co-workers, family members, friends, supervisors. Although anger is a very normal reaction experienced by every human being, it is indeed often a confusing and disturbing emotion. Few of us are satisfied with how we handle the anger we feel, or the anger we experience coming from others. We will discuss what anger is, anger disorders, and anger management techniques. Some personal surveys will be administered to help you understand your own anger. You will learn techniques to deal with angry students and how to diffuse their anger.
Formerly DPS 15313 Managing in a Changing Environment
This seminar will use a variety of models to help you understand the behavioural and psychological responses people often have to change. You will examine several broad change issues operating in the Western World today and gain insights into the reasons behind change in Canadian society over the past decade. You will also use a model for planning personal and corporate change strategies which can be applied to a real work situation immediately.
Participants will learn to apply the tools, methods, and techniques to the office processes where they can see the immediate benefit. Before and after metrics on throughput, quality, and productivity will dramatically illustrate the power of these improvement methods. Managers will learn to establish visual controls so that the status of work can be easily determined and where corrective action can occur very quickly.
