In Case You Missed It (ICYMI)
In March, we brought back in-person lunches and campus tours to the Bear Connection program, with one big change. We moved away from one-on-one mentoring and launched a group mentoring model to better support our new hires and Bear Connection Ambassadors in 2022. We believe this shift will support more intentional mentoring matches going forward. Stay tuned! We have more to share on Bear Connection in the coming months. Other highlights from the OTD team in March include the following:
- We signed up for LinkedIn courses on building a more equitable and collaborative work culture in honor of International Women’s Day.
- We covered how to register for free classes to help you reach your learning ADP goals early this year.
- We learned communication basics and effective listening tips from Dr. Gloria Galanes.
- We practiced 3 habits to improve our critical thinking skills and leveled up with a half-day workshop on Critical Thinking.
