Session Descriptions
First Quarter
9:15AM – 10:30AM
Option 1
Candy Conard
Dancing with the Team – Part 1 of 2
In 2011 The Eagles had a team of superstars….and yet could not win. After the NFL lockout they wasted no time adding big names to their roster….proven talent…and on paper they assembled one of the best teams in the NFL….on paper. But games are not played on paper, and teams are not made up of superstars.
This workshop is designed to help you understand the make-up of a winning team, how it develops, and how it can positively impact your work environment. It is practical, with hands-on practice opportunities throughout the 2.5 hours.
This practical approach to team participation, team development and team strategies will help you in your day to day work experience. Remember the old saying, “there is no I in team”, but another could be, “no team is successful without the assist”.
Option 2
Angela Kusek-Schubert
Living on the Cheap
Come and learn my favorite tips and tricks for living green without breaking the bank! I’ll share my tips for making the weeks go smoothly and some tasty recipes! Recipes for concentrated drinks, bread mixes, slow cooker yogurt, cleaners, laundry soaps, etc.
Option 3
Jane Birr
Practical Strategies to Decrease Negativity and Increase Positivity
Negativity can steal your energy and poison the workplace. Many of us spew negativity and don’t even realize it! Come gain awareness by taking a Positivity Ratio test. Next, learn key strategies to decrease the drain of negativity. Leave energized by learning new habits that can make you and your workplace come alive and flourish!
Option 4
Mystery Project
The session will involve working together as a team to complete a project.
Option 5
Lissa Balison
Mindfulness
In a culture of always sprinting ahead and looking behind (often with regret and/or embarrassment) wouldn’t it be nice to learn how to take a break from all of that and “just be” from time to time. Mindfulness will give you that opportunity.
What is mindfulness?
Mindfulness means to deliberately pay attention to whatever you are doing, right now. Everything except sleep can be done mindfully. For example, we can eat mindfully or we can think about past or future events without paying attention to our eating. This is not the easiest of things to do but it is possible. This session will focus on basic mindfulness practices that anyone can apply to their daily life.

Angela Kusek-Schubert
Essential Essentials
This session will be about blending oils and how to use them every day while eliminating toxins in your home/workplace. I will show you how to use a vapor diffuser and my favorite blends for that! I will teach what basic oils do for you -Lavender: calming, Peppermint: tummy aches and headaches, Tea Tree: Fungal and Bacteria killer. ETC!!!
Option 3
Jane Birr
Hall of Fame Habits: Success Strategies from People Living Great Personal and Workplace Health
Does this sound familiar:
“I know what I should do, but I don’t feel like it. Then I feel frustrated and eat to feel better. Pass the chips!”
“I’m overwhelmed and tired from too much work and taking care of everybody else.”
“I just can’t seem to stick with it. I’ll start over…tomorrow.
Enough is enough! Come get energized by hearing stories of other time-pressure people who have broken free! Leave with strategies to add confidence, resilience and zest into your life that will help you attack obstacles and joyfully reach your goals.

Option 5
Tim Pflieger
Communicating for Success
Success in life depends upon our communication skills, the quality of our questions and controlling our “internal critic”. Successful communication is the ability to use specific skills in a manner that allows for understanding in the giving and receiving of information. This presentation examines group and individual communication and provides participants proven communication skills which will support successful communication.
Third Quarter
Lucy Arendt
12:45 – 1:45 pm
Live Long & Prosper
My Great-Aunt Lucy lived to be 100. My Grandma Alice lived to be 94. Both women were bright, hardworking, no-nonsense people. What was the secret to their longevity? Research tells us that certain characteristics and behaviors are more likely to be associated with living long, and living well. We’ll talk about what those characteristics are, and what you can do to cultivate them. Hint: Laughter’s part of the equation. And it doesn’t hurt to be a little stubborn.
