Add-On Events
Workshop: Happy Leaders
In the new world of work, leaders have the opportunity to redefine, reshape, and revitalize their workplace. Learning how to adapt quickly, clearly communicate, and facilitate meaningful change is necessary for leaders to successfully navigate the future of work at the individual, team, and organizational levels.
Happiness is the ultimate competitive advantage. Research shows that when compared to unhappier leaders, happier leaders are more productive, confident, likeable, and more likely to get promoted. In this lively and interactive session, Gillian Mandich, PhD, shares her proven process that blends practical psychology and cutting-edge research to teach how to effectively lead through change and uncertainty, elevate happiness at work, increase employee engagement, improve productivity, and inspire innovation.
Attend this workshop to transform into a happy leader!
Thursday Social: EBAA on the Town
In addition to professional education and personal networking, EBAA’s Annual Meeting is about reconnecting with your friends and colleagues. Building on the success of our social event at the House of Blues last year, we’re taking over No Other Pub for a night of fun and games.
Located a few short blocks from the Loews Hotel, No Other Pub is a unique venue that includes complimentary bowling, shuffleboard, cornhole, ping-pong, billiards, old-school arcade games, and more. We’ll also have a live DJ on call to spin your favorite tunes, along with quieter areas more conducive to conversation. As an added bonus, you can also get the best seat in the house for the Power & Light District’s weekly country music concert right outside No Other Pub’s door; just step onto the balcony to enjoy the music in a VIP listening area!
Attendance at the social event requires a separate registration fee, so add this event to your registration – it’ll be all anyone is talking about on Friday morning.
