Happy December! 

As we look to the end of the semester and a restful winter break, we finish out the year with a few sessions on leadership development, wellness, and exam stress relief for students.  

We continue to share curated offerings from HRDQ on leadership development including: First or Worst: What Builds and Breaks Leaders; and Taking the Lead: Five Things Every Supervisor Needs to Know. These webinars are free through HRDQ, and you can find all of their offerings here. 

We also continue our collaboration with the USM Learning and Talent Development Committee by offering all campuses the USM Winter Wellness event on December 20th. There are 14 separate workshops during this day-long event, including “Communicating Without Conflict with Your Significant Other”, “Managing Holiday Stress” and “Emotional Eating: The Connection Between Mood and Food.” Select all, or just one or two, to get you on the path to wellness this winter. 

This collaboration with USM also extends to our students. This month, UMD extends a welcome to all USM students for a workshop on wellness techniques to ease end of semester and exam stress. More information and registration can be found at https://go.umd.edu/micro-moments. 

Have a safe and pleasant winter break!
