In today's always-on world, there is an expectation of constant availability, leaving little room for rest, recovery, or even a moment to think. Over time, that relentless pressure takes a real toll, and burnout is often the result.
The Division of Human Resources would like to remind employees about an available CDPHP Fitness Reimbursement benefit, which provides an opportunity to support health, wellness, and physical activity for you and your family. Eligible CDPHP members may receive up to $200 per plan year (for all covered dependents combined) toward qualified fitness programs and activities — including youth sports camps.
At Rensselaer, we maintain that “leadership” involves a learnable set of actions and behaviors that is available to everyone. Whether it be leading a particular project or initiative, assisting others in overcoming obstacles and capitalizing on opportunities, or catalyzing co-creation with colleagues, Rensselaer community members model leadership every day. In this workshop, participants will explore the tenants that comprise everyday leadership and discuss the behaviors that define leadership not as positional or based on title, but rather on values and actions.
In this seminar, Managers and Supervisors will learn from each other and our Facilitators about important topics such as the Employee Value Proposition and Employee Experience, the six fundamental Leadership competencies at Rensselaer, and experience a “day in the life” of a Supervisor. In addition, the importance of managing employee performance, providing both rewards and recognition, employment law fundamentals and tools for building team capacity will be explored.
