  The Association for Talent Development-Los Angeles Organization Development Special Interest Group invites you to a presentation:

  Talking With Each Other:  The Key to Organizational Effectiveness 

  with Michael Baroff

  

  Whether you are facilitating a group or coaching an individual, an ongoing challenge is to bring awareness to "what is happening" in the moment‑—what is said, what is unsaid, and what needs to be said.  In this session, we will explore and reflect on how to increase awareness and candor to support achieving effective outcomes.

  Michael Baroff has over 30 years experience consulting with a wide range of business, government and nonprofit organizations.    He is the author of The Inner Work of Work series and served as the 1992 ATD (ASTD)-LA Chapter President.  His current client work focuses on small group facilitation and HR-related performance improvement coaching.  He also facilitates a public workshop on Conscious Aging.

  Training's Role In Preventing Sexual Harassment

  The rising tide of allegations and the #MeToo campaign point to the need for better workplace discussion and a culture where victims feel they can come forward.  What is the role of training in preventing sexual harassment?  What impact do current organizational training efforts have in preventing sexual harassment in the workplace?  What can organizations do differently to increase the effectiveness of their efforts?  

  Join your fellow colleagues as we explore and discuss this hot topic.  Our discussion will be inspired by a recent article from Chief Learning Officer Magazine. 

  Breakfast Available On Site!
  

  American Honda graciously provides coffee for the RoundTable sessions. The on-site Starbucks conveniently opens at 7AM for your breakfast needs!   

  Our Session Format:

  The RoundTable is an exciting approach that stimulates incredible conversation and insight around the topics and trends impacting our discipline. 

  We will read the selected piece aloud together for about 15 minutes.  Then for the next 45 minutes, we offer everyone in attendance equal time to share their thoughts and experiences on or around the topic. Come explore with us!

  The GEMS RoundTable format is provided by Sue Gabriele, President and Owner, Gabriele Educational Materials and Systems.
