How to Stop Burnout and Re-energize Your Work for Your Best Year Ever [DLD Virtual Workshop] Wednesday, March 4 from 10-12 | Register<https://cslib.libcal.com/event/15856878>

Burnout is real and affects all industries and employees at every level from CEO's to administrative assistants. In some professions, like medicine, it's rampant and has damaging consequences. Learn what burnout is and isn't, why it's dangerous, and strategies and tools for addressing it. In this interactive Zoom workshop, you'll explore how to: recognize the signs of burnout, identify the causes--both internal and external, own it (you're the boss of your own life), explore alternatives, and decide what you want as there are never no choices. This workshop will give you your own personalized plan for ensuring that burnout doesn't stop you from having your best year ever.

Stand Out Every Time You Talk [DLD In-Person Workshop] Wednesday, April 15 from 1-3:30 at the Middletown Library Service Center | Register<https://cslib.libcal.com/event/15851022> – Note: Perfect for anyone planning an upcoming presentation at CLA, or other conferences.

What happens when you have to make a presentation--whether to staff, the board or a room full of strangers? You get nervous and your message gets lost. In this two and a half hour, interactive workshop, learn the fundamentals of effective presentation skills. Find out how solid eye contact is an anchor, learn about posture and why gestures are essential and make your content come alive. We'll also cover how to use your voice effectively, tips on crowd control, and how to regain the attention of a distracted audience. We'll practice Q&A skills and why this part of your presentation is a great opportunity for you to shine. Interactive and fun, join us live at the CT State Library in Middletown for a session that will help you channel your nervousness so that you stand out every time you talk! P.S. Introverted or shy presenters are often the most effective once they learn how to engage the audience.
