- Intro – Allison Rankin, director – UNCW Professional and Continuing EducationAn outreach arm of the universityHave students introduce themselves and tell what they aspire to do in their careers:“Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?”My unit was established in 2005 for the purpose of linking university resources with the greater community. Typically, this means serving as a liaison between a company’s plant manager or HR director and UNCW faculty and staff. I match what’s needed in a particular business situation with an instructor’s area of expertise. I also work with selected independent contractors who have specialty areas of knowledge or certification, e.g. Workforce Metrics and the assessment tools used for succession planning and performance improvement.

- The Art of Possibility – Using the metaphor of music, Ben Zander, conductor of the Boston Philharmonic, and is wife Rosamund, a psychologist and executive coach, offer new sets of practices by which to “frame” one’s life. They also offer methods to motivate, engage and inspire one’s workforce. Reading this book will enable you to understand your potential and identify areas of “transformational” improvement. StrengthsFinder 2.0 – Do you have the opportunity to do what you do best every day? Chances are, you don't. All too often, our natural talents go untapped. From the cradle to the cubicle, we devote more time to fixing our shortcomings than to developing our strengths. To help people uncover and describe these talents, The Gallup Organization introduced and recently enhanced its online assessment that identifies and measures a person’s natural strengths and talents. It also provides examples of how to apply these skills within their roles, be it at work or at home. Wikinomics – This book challenges deeply-rooted assumptions about business and is indispensable to anyone who wants to understand the key forces driving competitiveness in the 21st century. It is based on four ideas: Openness, Peering, Sharing, and Acting Globally It explores how some companies in the early 21st century have used mass collaboration (also called peer production) and open-source technology such as wikis to improve a given operation or solve a problem. Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ - New York Times science writer Daniel Goleman argues that our emotions play a much greater role in thought, decision making and individual success than is commonly acknowledged. He defines “emotional intelligence” as a trait not measured by IQ tests but as a set of skills, including control of one’s impulses, self-motivation, empathy and social competence in interpersonal relationships.
