Sensei Leadership: Applying Martial Arts Practices to Cultivate Impactful Relationships

Session Time: 1:00 pm — 2:00 pm

Speaker: Dawn Roe, Vice President Human Resources, ABODA by RESIDE

Session Description: Effective relationships are established and maintained on the basis of trust and respect which are extended through the practices of honor and justice in how you deal with others. Without trust and respect and trust, relationships break down, and this extends even, to the relationship you have with yourself. This session will focus on the martial arts concepts and philosophies as applied to building relationships through trust and respect. You will learn the factors to consider that support interest, compatibility, and effective collaboration with another person. Through concepts, philosophies, and stories, you will learn the keys to building and maintaining effective relationships with anyone, including your managers, your direct reports, external or internal clients, and even to family and friends.
