Me, Myself and I: How do you define yourself in the 21st century?
Monday, January 30th, 2:00pm – 4:00pm, E19-202
We all hold multiple identities and they interact in our lives in different ways. At home, in the classroom, at the office, the words we use to describe ourselves have power and can change the way we see ourselves in these environments. What words have you used to describe your identity? How have others described you? How do our perceptions of ourselves impact the roles we play in our daily lives and the roles we hope to play in our professional careers? This interactive workshop will explore these questions and give you the opportunity to refine your sense of self as you step into your daily life and your career.
