Here we go!
As students immerse themselves excitedly into the Live Exchange experience, they continue to explore their strengths (via the Strengths Finder and HayGroup Emotional and Social Competency Inventory) as a way to improve skills needed to succeed in today's marketplace. Activities such as the coach/coachee training will allow them to build an engaging relationship with their classmates. At the same time, these activities provide in-depth analyses of current situations in relation to each person's personality. During this second residency, students in Live Exchange also had the opportunity to receive feedback and training from Udaya Patnaik, CEO of Jump Associates. Patnaik's ideas included providing students with the skills needed to engage audiences and give successful public presentations. As Linda Yaven continued to enlighten the class with practical exercises, students had the opportunity to put some of the learned material into practice through a 7-minute presentation. Live Exchange Second Residency came to a quick end, leaving students with a number of insights to help them improve their skills in the weeks to come.
