EDC PARTNER SCHEDULE
SCORE: VIDEO MARKETING ON A BUDGET: BIG IMPACT, SMALL SPEND
July 30 @ 12:00 pm
When asked at Fortune’s 2016 Most Powerful Women International Summit in London where Facebook would be in a half decade in terms of mobile and video, Facebook Vice President Nicola Mendelsohn said the social network would “definitely” be mobile, and would “probably” be “all video.” In the past several years, Mendelsohn’s prediction has come true for Facebook and the other major social media platforms. As an entrepreneur, you must get proficient at creating videos to promote yourself and your business. This workshop teaches you that you don’t have to be perfect, just human.

SCORE: HOW TO NAVIGATE DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS IN THE WORKPLACE
July 31 @ 10:00 am
Do you know how to react effectively when you hear something offensive, directed at you or a colleague? Unfortunately, the most likely outcome for most individuals is this: they say nothing. Either because they are afraid to say the wrong thing or don’t know what to say. Navigating difficult conversations is essential for building trust and team cohesion. The problem is that these discussions can feel uncomfortable and overwhelming, especially when emotions run high. This webinar will equip you with the tools needed to approach conflict with confidence and to facilitate a meaningful dialogue in a way that promotes understanding and resolution.
