SUMMARY:Register for 'New Year\, New You' - The Power of Executive Coaching Event
DESCRIPTION:When: Thursday\, November 16\, 2023 \nWhere: CEDIA Headquarters\, 8475 Nightfall Lane\, Fishers\, Indiana 46037 \nAll-day event that begins at 10:00 a.m. with Networking Light Breakfast/Coffee through Networking Cocktail Reception \nAs the year ends – it’s time to invest in you! Consider how you want to close out 2023 and build an amazing New Year with a New You! Join us for a full day of exploring what coaching is and how a professional coach can take your career and life to a new level! You’ll hear from coaching leaders as they provide tools that empower you and develop your presence and leadership. \n  \nNeed a reason to attend? Hear from our keynote speaker Becky Magnotta \n  \n \n  \n\n\n\nYou’ll experience: \n  \nIntroduction and Keynote with Becky Magnotta\, of Homestead Coaching and Consulting\, LLC. Becky will share her journey and how she uses her strengths\, values and her saboteurs to help plan her path for the next year and beyond. She will also provide you an overview of what the day looks like\, and introduce you to your team of sponsors\, speakers\, coach/facilitators\, and support.\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \nThree experiential breakout sessions where you will gain immediate\, actionable tools. We call these experiential because you’ll have devoted time to practice and develop an action plan to immediately apply what you learned. For each breakout session\, we use the framework of What (What did I learn?)\, So What (What does it mean to me?) and Now What (How will I use the information?). You’ll also be guided in application for each session by your table host who is a certified International Coach Federation (ICF) coach. \n  \nThe three breakout session topics are: \nCoaching 101 – What\, Why and How (Stephanie Brown) – What is coaching and why do I need it and how will it help me?  We’ll also cover how to find the right coach and how to convince your company to pay for it. \nWheel of Life – What it means and how to use it? (Speaker TBD)– We’ll take time to look back over your life\, where have you been\, and what lessons have you learned?  With that insight\, look at where you are currently focusing your energy\, and decide if that’s what you want in 2024.  We’ll wrap up by making some plans of steps you can take to make 2024 exceptional. \nYour Leadership and Coaching (Speaker TBD) – We are all leaders.  We always lead ourselves; we might lead others\, lead leaders\, or lead an organization.  How does leading yourself change through this progressive journey\, and how do we ensure we are self-aware and in command of our emotions every step of the way. \n  \nWe’ve heard that you want more networking!  We have included extensive opportunities to network with fellow women in the CI channel – at the sessions\, breakfast\, lunch\, coffee breaks and a happy hour.

Enter technology on a completely different plane than ever before. \nOur panel today are telling their stories about the real challenges facing their clients and their creative solutions.

SUMMARY:Mavens Share the Power\, Lead With Style and Build Rock Stars
DESCRIPTION:Influential leadership is a philosophy that involves focusing on others by building better professional relationships that can benefit both the leader and the team member. Influential leadership means that individuals can be formal or informal leaders while boosting their employee’s confidence and furthering their success at the same time! \nIt’s a leader’s responsibility to guide their team on the right path. But to become a better leader\, it’s not enough just to take the wheel and steer – you must also be willing to serve your team and assist them in their own journey. An influential leader should have a desire to help their team members achieve their goals\, which includes taking the time to identify how they perform best or being beside them as they face challenges. Take the time to assist in their growth and help them work toward achieving their goals. When an individual uses this type of power\, it’s amazing what a team can do! \nMichelle Burke\, Founder and Maven Maker\, Bossibly\nMichelle is the Founder and Maven Maker of bossibly; she aides young professionals and business owners alike by coaching them to become influential leaders. Using a unique system\, she combines character strengths and core values to help them create a culture of engagement\, which fosters predictable results and accountability. \nView Event Website Here
