Workshops in Session#1
9:00 – 10:00am
#485S Keys to Being an Effective Team Member in the Workplace
Presenter: Dr.
Dianne Van Hook, Chancellor
Room: ALLH 101
What makes
a team effective, productive and efficient? Teams who thrive exude
passion and energy towards the same mission, vision and goals. Each
person on the team is responsible for bringing their best ideas,
energy and creativity to the team. What causes a disruption or
conflict within teams? Different styles of managing our workload,
communicating with others, and personal values are often sources of
conflict in the workplace, particularly since we now have four
generations working in the same workplace. This session will explore
how our words, communication styles, attitudes and behavior affect
the level of performance within the team and how it can have
positive and negative effects on the other members of the team.
Dr. Van Hook will provide you with tools and strategies you can use
to manage differences, resolve conflicts, and improve communication
in the work place. You will also learn how to provide leadership for
productive problem-solving efforts in your team, how to build strong
working relationships, and understand the importance of having a
positive attitude each day you come to work.
Learning outcomes: By the end of this session, you will have
learned:
• Strategies you can use that will help you be a positive and
effective contributor to the teams of which you are a member
• How to identify and correct behavior that does not promote
teamwork
• How to effectively handle less effective behavior and help a
person displaying such behavior become a valued contributor to the
team
• The importance of communicating effectively and clearly
• The value and benefits of coming to work each day with a positive,
can-do attitude
#486S Emergency
Preparedness
Presenters: Dr. Michael Wilding, Dr.
Barry Gribbons, Mr. Jim Schrage, Mr. John McElwain
Room: TWSH 106
Most everyone knows that College of the Canyons has published
its Emergency Operations Plan and that it includes a lot of
information about organizational structure, general “do’s” and
“don’ts” that apply to certain emergency scenarios, and information
on how the college will interact with other agencies if a major,
catastrophic event takes place. But paper plans don’t respond to
emergencies; people do! And, as Shakespeare’s Hamlet would say, “Ay,
there’s the rub.”
Attend this session to engage in a frank, information-filled
discussion about the realities of emergency plan implementation that
will answer the most important question of all, “What, specifically,
do I do when a real emergency occurs?” You will also learn about the
roles we will all play if/when disaster strikes.
Learning Outcomes: By the end of this session, participants will
understand the District’s emergency plan and what their role is when
an emergency situation arises.

#491S Designing Your
Workspace to be Ergonomically Correct
Room: ALLH 108
Ergonomics is the relationship between people and their computers,
chairs and office equipment. Better comfort and function of your
workspace leads to:
• Less fatigue – it takes more energy to sit and work in an
incorrect posture. Set your office workspace up to fit your body and
you won’t become as tired.
• Increased productivity – being comfortable on the job will allow
you to get more work done in less time.
Attend this session to learn how to adjust your work station,
including where to place the monitor, keyboard and mouse. You will
also learn how to adjust your chair properly and learn some
stretches you can do right at your desk to improve your posture and
keep fatigue and aching shoulders and backs at bay.
Learning Outcome: By the end of this session, participants will have
learned how to adjust the monitor, keyboard, mouse and chair to be
ergonomically correct.
