ARC Explores: Leveraging Connection to Prevent Staff and Faculty Burnout

November 17, 2022

Join us for this interactive workshop, facilitated by Jessica Gifford, LICSW, Chief Connection Officer at ProjectConnect.

Research shows that liking and feeling connected to co-workers is the number one reason people choose to stay at their jobs and the top predictor of job satisfaction, yet most campuses do little to facilitate relationship-building among staff and faculty. Participants will learn strategies for promoting connection, and practice three exercises that they can bring back to their campuses.
