     Announcements : It's Your Call Challenge

    Announcements

    Springtime brings us lots of sounds that we don’t hear the rest of the year. Geese honk overhead, peepers peep and wood frogs chortle in the wetlands. Barred owls mating calls range from their typical “Who cooks for you” to something that sounds (to me) more like laughing hyenas. Towhees admonish us to drink our tea, tufted titmice shout for Peter, and the warblers sing their little hearts out.

    All those nature calls led the staff at !Pfeiffer Nature Center to create an <em>It's Your Call</em> challenge Come up with your own springtime “call” for the Nature Center. Your call won’t be auditory, instead it will be verbal. Actually, written.

    Go to theNature Center blog for all the contest details, then start thinking like a bird. Or a frog. Or even the wind.

    There will be a prize for the winner, and all entries will be posted on the Nature Center's blog.

    Here’s one to get you started – only 34 characters: <em>Celebrate nature, share the wonder</em>

    Have fun with this!

    PUBLIC SPEAKING with Anna Bush

    Research shows that more people are afraid of public speaking than they are of dying. Does that describe you? The good news is that with a little bit of training, you can turn that dread of public speaking into confidence, and perhaps ultimately fun! In this workshop we will address the emotional and technical aspects of giving a speech, whether it's for employment or enjoyment. From identifying when anxiety occurs during the process to coping techniques, participants will learn tools to address those fears. In addition, knowing what it takes to make a good speech in terms of preparation and writing will reduce stress and maximize effectiveness. During the workshop, attendees will not only get to hear about these things, but also try them out. Public speaking is a fact of life - job interviews, office meetings, work presentations, club and religious presentations, and family functions all require us to be able to communicate to groups of people. This workshop will leave you better prepared for those moments in life when talking to a group is required.

    You are also welcome to attend the Olean Toastmasters on Tuesday, April 10 at 7:00 pm in College Center, Room 227 to see first-hand how experienced public speakers handle themselves.

    DATE: Tuesday & Thursday, April 10 & 12, 2012
    TIME: 1:00 – 4:00 pm
    FEE: $29
    PLACE: JCC Training & Conference Center Olean, NY, Room 101

     Announcements : World-renowned leaders to speak at JCC-Olean

    Posted by Meme on 2012/2/28 15:56:37 (125 reads)
    Announcements

    Community business leaders can access the knowledge and experience of world-renowned leaders by attending Chick-fil-A Leadercast at Jamestown Community College, Cutco Theater, 260 North Union Street in Olean, NY on May 4, 2012.

    Chick-fil-A Leadercast is a one-day leader development event broadcast LIVE from Atlanta, Ga. to hundreds of sites throughout the nation, including Olean. Speakers for this year’s event include:

    o Soledad O’Brien, Anchor and special correspondent for CNN
    o Tim Tebow, NFL quarterback, Heisman Trophy winner and best-selling author
    o Patrick Lencioni, Best-selling author and president of The Table Group
    o John Maxwell, Leadership expert & best-selling author of “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership”
    o Angela Ahrendts, CEO, Burberry
    o Roland Fryer, Professor of economics at Harvard University and CEO of the Education Innovation Laboratory
    o Urban Meyer, ESPN analyst and former head football coach for the University of Florida
    o Andy Stanley, Best-selling leadership author and communicator
    o Sheena Iyengar, Author of “The Art of Choosing“ and world-renowned expert of choice

    Last year, 85,000 leaders from 17 countries attended Chick-fil-A Leadercast. In its 12th year, this full day, experiential conference is predicted to reach its largest audience to date. “It is one of the single most consolidated sources of leadership that I know of,” said Betty Burrows, Program Associate at Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce. “But it goes beyond that. I think this conference, although very focused on leadership, transcends the topic and really shows you how to lead in life.”

    This year’s program will focus on the power of choice. The diverse group of internationally-acclaimed authors, leadership experts and practitioners will share insights to help leaders empower and equip others at work, at home and in the community through his or her choices.

    “We’re really good at getting messages aimed at very specific, targeted audiences. But we aren’t always very good at reaching out across the culture,” said Malcolm Gladwell best-selling author of “Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking” and “Outliers: The Story of Success.” “I think this is one of the few organizations that does that...that really appeals to me.”

    Jamestown Community College and the Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce have brought this simulcast to the community for four years. Tickets to attend this full-day simulcast are $65 a person including refreshments and lunch. For more information about Chick-fil-A Leadercast, visit www.chick-fil-aleadercast.com. For local ticketing information, call Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce at 716-372-4433 or visit www.oleanny.com.
