SUMMARY:Practical Leadership 1.0: Cultivating Thriving Supervisory Relationships
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is offered in partnership with the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits (MCN).  \nWed – Fri\, April 21-23\, 2021\, 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM\nFee: $129 for members (email hilaria@dev.wvnpa.org for the discount code)/$169 for nonmembers \nREGISTER NOW\nDescription\nEffectively carrying out a supervisor role is more “art” than science. Often\, managers are left on their own to try and figure out how to implement their supervisor duties. Unskilled supervision can create organizational cultures that are ineffective at best and “toxic” at worst. When supervisors understand the expectations of their role\, they are able to supervise in a way that fosters healthy working relationships with each employee that reports to them. This\, in turn\, creates thriving\, inclusive organizational cultures. \nThis highly interactive virtual training provides participants with immediately implementable tools and strategies and is one of MCN’s most popular trainings\, consistently receiving high evaluations. \nThis is a six-hour virtual training spread over three two-hour sessions\, April 21\, 22\, and 23 from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. each day. \nTopics include: \n\nCultivating self-awareness and emotional intelligence\nUnderstanding privilege and power in your supervisor role\nHolding difficult conversations\nSix essential skills of supervision\nCoach approach to supervision\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\nBetter understand the competencies of the supervisor role and have improved confidence in implementing the role\nCultivate self-awareness and accountability for avoiding toxic behaviors in the work place\nIncrease comfort at holding a range of conversations\, including developmental feedback\nLearn strategies for helping employees solve their own challenges\nBuild awareness of when to use coaching in the supervisor role\nReceive an introduction to the fundamental components of coaching – listening and inquiry\n\nSpeaker Information\nLisa Negstad consults with a diverse clientele of nonprofits\, philanthropies\, and government in leadership and organizational development. Believing anyone can be a leader\, Lisa lives in two worlds: traditional hierarchies\, where she helps managers excel in their role\, and collective teams\, where she helps groups think systemically and improve their shared leadership skills. Before starting her own consulting firm\, Lisa held senior leadership and management positions in several international and U.S.-based nonprofit organizations. Lisa has an MBA from Yale and a B.A. in psychology from Luther College and is certified as a Human Systems Dynamics professional. Lisa\, an ongoing learner of cultural agility\, brings a strong value of inclusion and participatory processes to her training.

SUMMARY:Federal Work Study Programs for Community Organizations
DESCRIPTION:The WVU Center for Service and Learning and WVU Student Financial Services have collaborated with the WVNPA to share information about how your organization might benefit from the Federal Work-Study program. \nThursday April 29th 2PM-3:30 PM  PRE-REGISTRATION LINK  Please RSVP by 4:45PM on Monday April 26th. \nFederal Work-Study (FWS) is a federally funded program that allows eligible students to earn funds working part-time with approved employers on and off campus. The program is mutually beneficial — the student earns money to pay for college while their employer gains a helpful hand and currently incurs no cost when it comes to their paycheck. \nIn preparation for academic year 2021-2022\, WVU Student Financial Services is expanding the program to include new community partners. Attend this free virtual info session to learn how that might be you! Eligible community partner sites include WV non-profit 501(c)(3) organizations\, and federal\, state\, or local government agencies serving in the public interest. Be aware that some students attend WVU remotely from their own communities. Their work-study experience can potentially be carried out with organizations in the communities where they live. Student workers can be recruited according to your unique needs. At this time the University covers the partner match requirement\, although the community partner organization may be required in the future to match a small percentage of the wages earned. Be aware that while other higher education institutions offer federal work-study awards\, this session will only be able to answer questions about WVU’s program. If you are interested in partnering with another higher-ed institution\, we encourage you to inquire with their financial aid offices. \nThe program will cover the topics below and include a Q&A session at the conclusion of the presentation. \n\nWhat kinds of organizations are eligible to hire work-study students?\nWhat is the process for being approved as a community-based site?\nHow do we recruit and hire students?\nWhat are my responsibilities as a supervisor of FWS students?\nHow are they paid?\nWhat kinds of jobs can students do?\n\nYou must pre-register to attend. A zoom meeting link will be provided upon registration.  \nPRE-REGISTRATION LINK  Please RSVP by 4:45PM on Monday April 26th.
