VIRTUAL: YAAA Individual Development Plan Workshop

Join YAAA and Staffing & Career Development for an overview of the Individual Development Plan (IDP) process.
An IDP starts with an annual conversation between a manager and a staff member that is transformed into an action plan of realistic steps the employee can take to help him or her build a desired skill, better use existing talents, or prepare for a career goal. IDP is complementary to the annual performance management process and encourages employees to invest in their work and themselves, contributing to greater job satisfaction.

VIRTUAL: “The Machine Stops” Book Club Discussion

The genre of science fiction often serves as a warning. If we ignore the failures of these fictional societies, then we are doomed to make the same mistakes.

Written in 1909, E. M. Forster’s short story eerily predicts the events of today. It describes a world in which humans live isolated in individual rooms, connected only through video and audio calls. What does Forster’s virtual society say about our own? What lessons can we learn from the world of the Machine?
