Description

Bringing the Fun to Networking: a Creative Approach to People Skills

The Yeates School of Graduate Studies and the John C. Eaton Chair in Social Innovation and Entrepreneurship are excited to co-host a special Community Transformation Café Workshop for graduate students that will combine liveliness and creativity with real life, essential people skills. Grad students will use arts-informed activities and techniques to help develop and strengthen their:

  • communication skills, making it easier and more enjoyable to network and be with others;
  • self-awareness, to help develop their own presence and calm confidence.

In this relaxed, yet skills-based context, students will have the opportunity to explore and broaden their own approaches to being with others. Through encouraging playfulness and curiosity, this workshop will provide a different approach to honing important skills in interdisciplinary work.

Lunch will be provided.

This workshop qualifies for the Future Smart: Essential Professional Skills for Graduate Students Program certificate. Bring your passport to be signed.

Please contact l2mutic@ryerson.ca if you require any accessibility or dietary accommodations to ensure your inclusion in this event.
