Quit Taking it Personally: Making Emotions Work for You in the Workplace 1. Emotions are critical for performance, satisfaction, and well-being at work and our emotional needs have to be met in order for us to feel engaged and successful. 2. Emotional regulation is the key to aligning feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Mindful awareness of how emotional responses influence our relationships and problem-solving can help us to successfully manage difficult situations and relationships. 3. 1. Understanding the threat and the different diseases these parasites carry helps us better advise our clients. 2. Knowing how to read CAPC maps to see what is moving into your area. 3. Understanding the life cycles helps us better understand how to mitigate the threat. 4. Knowing how different flea and tick products work to potentially break the life cycles and/or slow the spread of vector-borne diseases. 5. Knowing that cats DO get ticks and tick-borne diseases! Are you in Flea-nial or Ticked off? A Refresher - Fleas and Ticks and Their Roles in Diseases of Dogs and Cats To emotionally regulate in difficult situations apply a mindful approach! Breathe deeply to soothe the nervous system, then notice how and where emotions show up for you and breathe into those affected spaces. 4. Remember that emotions are not always accurate storytellers – they can either clarify or clog your thoughts. 5. The threat we perceive in any given situation is directly related to the degree to which we take that situation personally. Reduce defensiveness and effectively problem-solve when someone is engaging with you in a solution-building process.

Top Tips for Effective Decision- Making
1. Effective decision-making, a critical skill set for leaders, can be impacted by multiple factors (human nature, cultural experience, and complex situations), making it challenging. 2. Cognitive bias is a process that our brain uses to simplify and process information quickly. These biases can interfere with effective decision- making, however, they can be mitigated. 3. When making important decisions, a systematic approach is critical. A valuable seven-step process may be utilized. 4. Learning how to facilitate productive decision-making conversations is a valuable skill set and includes inviting the right people to the meeting, helping attendees prepare for the meeting, setting ground rules for discussion, and learning helpful group facilitation skills. 5. The RAPID framework is a valuable model to help identify the roles and responsibilities of all people involved in making and executing decisions.

Coaching and Leading High Performing Teams
1. Helping people move toward a more successful approach rather than away from mistakes is the only way to create lasting changes in behavior and performance. 2. Coaching is a process, not an art form or a gift. Anyone can master it using a set of five steps and developing habits that represent effective coaching and result in human behavior change. 3. Scheduled coaching conversations are far more effective than reactive coaching, which only happens when someone makes a mistake. 4. Questions that cause people to think about what they do next are more effective than statements about what they did wrong. 5. Coaching has to be supportive and collaborative. If it feels like punishment, no one wants more of it and it doesn’t work for very long.
