Virtual

  • Prayer and Meditation; Mandala Building

    -  Virtual on Zoom and in person on West Campus in the Library, Lobby

    Buddhist monks will create a sand mandala, a circular mural created from colored sand. The design takes days to complete as small tubes, funnels and scrapers are used to carefully place the sand. Upon completion, the sand mandala will be displayed for a short period of time before a dissolution ceremony is held to signify spreading kindness and compassion into the world and the impermanence of people and the world around us.

    Held in person on West Campus in the Library, Lobby. Also can be viewed through Zoom.

In this talk, Dr. Contessa will share insights from contemporary science and ancient wisdom traditions on how to transform change into an opportunity for renewal, and rediscover the inner peace that is our basic human heritage.

  • How To Face What (or Who) Scares You: A Conversation on Bias

    -  Virtual on Zoom

    Though connected more than ever, we all still have unconscious biases that affect how we perceive or interact with others. These biases create barriers to developing true connection with others. In this session, Dr. Leslie will have an honest but candid discussion around the unconscious biases and prejudices we hold against others and that the solution lies in boldly owning our stories and moving closer to the things (and people) that scare us. This keynote is great for addressing diversity and inclusion and social justice issues on campus, as well as peer relationships within campus organizations. This talk can also be adapted into a workshop format.

  • Creating Magic

    -  Virtual on Zoom

    It’s not the magic that makes it work; it’s the way we work that makes it magic.

    The secret for creating “magic” in our careers, our organizations, and our lives is simple: outstanding leadership—the kind that inspires employees, delights customers and achieves extraordinary business results.

    No one knows more about this kind of leadership than Lee Cockerell, the man who ran Walt Disney World® Resort operations for over a decade. And in Creating Magic, he shares the leadership principles that guided his journey from a poor farm boy in Oklahoma to the head of operations for a multibillion-dollar enterprise, which also soon came to form the cultural bedrock of the world’s number one vacation destination. But as Lee demonstrates, great leadership isn’t about mastering impossibly complex management theories. We can all become outstanding leaders by following the ten practical, common sense strategies outlined in this remarkable book.

  • Emptying the Emotional Bucket

    -  Virtual on Zoom

    How Choices Impact Chances—Recidivism is about re-offending.

    People who re-offend have never emptied their emotional bucket. Society continues to reject them, causing their bucket to stay full. Eventually, they will make a poor choice that could lead them to re-offend. You are students now, but one day you will be employers and family members of ex-offenders. We must give them an opportunity to be welcomed back and have a real opportunity to support themselves and their families. We must treat them like human beings who deserve love and compassion. Let's help them Discover their Inner Peace.
