Not convinced yet? Then contact Avish now with whatever questions you might have about his program! Avish's Seminars: The Ultimate Improvisation for Real Estate Professionals: How to Use Fundamentals and Exercises from Improv Comedy to Increase Productivity and Satisfaction Real estate professionals face a few (if not all) of the following problems: 1. Too much to do and too little time 2. Dealing with a constantly changing industry (along with changing regulations!) 3. Getting the most out of people you lead and manage 4. Effectively communicating with clients, co-workers, managers, and employees 5. Unexpected challenges and problems that arise at the most inopportune time 6. STRESS! Life and Business are completely unscripted. And yet people go out in the world and struggle because of their inability to flow with change and challenge. The key to succeeding in business and life (while having fun) is to let go, flow, and learn and apply the fundamentals of improv comedy. In this energetic, fun, and funny speech, Avish will use a variety of techniques, including funny stories, jokes, and improvisational exercises to get the audience to understand its potential and to be willing to take bold action on it! Attendees will learn: • The importance of having fun in life and in business, and have ideas of how to increase their own level of fun. • Realize that life is unscripted and unplanned, but with the right mentality and skill they can flow with obstacles and change and react powerfully. • How to get the most out of people they lead and manage by letting go of control • The fundamentals of effective communication, whether its with co-workers, managers, or employees • How to laugh and fun and reduce the stress in their lives Most importantly, the entire audience will laugh from start to finish while they are learning some valuable skills! Avish's Seminars (continued): Fundamental Creativity: How to Tap Into, Develop, and Apply Your Creativity for Better Problem Solving, Innovation, and Quick Thinking Think creativity is just a tool for artists, writers, musicians, and poets? Think again! Everyone is creative (yes, that includes you and everyone in your organization), and tapping that creativity is the key to launching your business forward. Benefits: • Generate more solutions in less time than before • Tap into who you are and what you want to do • Become 'naturally creative' • Learn ways to attack problems from a variety of directions • How to get more done in less time by thinking less Fundamental Teamwork: How To Have More Powerful Interactions With Customers, Clients, Co-Workers, Employees, and Teammates Rarely has a topic been so valued while being so misunderstood. Teamwork isn't about "Rah-rah!" activities and events - it's about having individuals who know how to listen, respect each other, and build ideas together. The ideal team is one where each member is able to be himself or herself 100%, and each team member helps all the others be themselves 100%. Benefits: • Learn how to listen effectively without memorizing 101 'active listening' techniques • Learn how to drill down to core issues when talking with others • Develop rapport by simply listening • Learn the powerful difference between saying 'yes but' and 'yes and' • Learn how to build ideas with others to keep everyone involved Here a Just a Few Things People are Saying about Avish's Presentations "Wonderful seminar.

  • First Edition
    First Edition Background: In an effort to enhance the student reflection experience in our campus wellness clinics, staff initiated a monthly blogging activity during this school year. Students were tasked with creating one blog per month on pre-determined professional workplace skills topic. Students were trained on how to create an effective blog, as well as, how to respond to a blog entry. Students wrote blogs after the second clinic of each month. Staff selected a winning entry from each program clinic and students then responded to the winning entries after the fourth clinic of each month. An awards certificate and award were handed out each month to the winning entries. Why Student Blogging: • Allows students to express and hone their creativity • Promotes academic integration in Career and Technical Education courses • Regular writing sharpens the brain ’s performance • Promotes expression of self • Boosts student confidence • Improves communication skills Student Outcomes: • Students gained “know-how ” that can enrich and benefit their clinic experience • Students were able to speak their mind • Students expressed “finding themselves ” and “finally understanding ” when reading or writing blog entries • Winning entries received constructive feedback from student peers • Blogging allowed students to develop unique content and express their clinic experience perspective to others Please enjoy reading our student blog entries on their CAVIT wellness clini c experiences! We Smile Together Here at CAVIT ☺☺☺ The word together symbolizes a group effort, here at CAVIT we work together to get things done efficiently. During our CAVIT dental clinic's we get things done together, we are not only a team that improves each other’s weaknesses; we are a family, "The Dental Family.” The Dental family helps each other out during clinics with simple things like getting a tray ready for a patient.

  • 'Bite Me': Buffy and the Penetration of the Gendered Warrior-Hero
    Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies, Vol. 16, No. 2, 2002 ‘Bite Me’: Buffy and the penetration of the gendered warrior-hero SARA BUTTSWORTH, University of Western Australia Introduction Can the ultimate girl be the ultimate warrior? If warrior identity is simultaneously a quintessentially masculine identi er, and one of the core expressions of ‘innate’ masculinity, then the biggest transgression of warrior iconography posed by Buffy the Vampire Slayer is Buffy’s gender. Buffy is both like and not like ‘other girls’. The social conventions of mainstream femininity, which have so often been used to argue that women cannot be warriors, are often precisely what make Buffy such an effective soldier in her speculative world. The blurred boundaries that are possible in speculative texts open up space necessary to examine the arguments and gendered ideologies which govern what is, and what is not, possible in the ‘real’ world. Such texts can often make explicit what is implied in more ‘realistic’ representations, and can either destabilize or reinforce gendered cultural conventions.1 Established as the ‘chosen one’ in the 1992 lm, and then in the television series which debuted mid-season in 1997, Buffy has slashed her way not only through the ctional constraints placed upon her predecessors in vampire carnage, but through the conventions governing gendered constructions of the warrior.2 Warrior tradition con- structs a coherent masculinity, including impenetrable male bodies, as the key to warrior identity, and renders ‘slay-gal’3 not only paradoxical but, arguably, impossible. It is this (im)possibility, and the ways in which Buffy the Vampire Slayer fractures and reinvents the gendered identity of the warrior-hero, which are explored in this article.

    Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, 2020, 13, 445-465 445 © 2020 College Sport Research Institute The Impact of Person-Environment Fit on the Academic Satisfaction of Division II Student-Athletes __________________________________________________________ Mark A Beattie Fort Lewis College Brian A Turner The Ohio State University ________________________________________________________ Over the last decade, both the NCAA (“Life in the Balance,” n.d.) and the academy (Cooper, 2016; Huml, Svensson, & Hancock, 2017) have emphasized the importance of holistic student- athlete development. In fact, an emerging trend among Division I institutions is the construction of academic support centers designed to facilitate the academic and professional development of student-athletes. However, some scholars have questioned their overall effectiveness in achieving those ends (Huml, Hancock, & Bergman, 2014). Such facilities are not as common among Division II athletic departments, challenging those institutions to find other ways to maximize student-athlete development. The purpose of this study was to explore how perceived person-environment fit affects student-athlete academic satisfaction, one such measure of holistic development. Survey data was collected from 257 student-athletes at four different Division II institutions within one athletic conference. A hierarchical multiple regression determined that person-environment fit uniquely explained 9.7% of the variability in academic satisfaction. Additionally, the final regression model reported that person-teammate fit was a statistically significant, demonstrating the salience of interpersonal relationships among teammates. This article concludes with a discussion of practical implications for stakeholders within the Division II environment.

  • Slayage 1: Wandless
    William Wandless Undead Letters: Searches and Researches in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Buffy, I have volumes of lore, of prophecies and predictions. But I don’t have an instruction manual. We feel our way as we go along. And I must admit, as a Slayer you’re doing pretty well. —Rupert Giles, in “Never Kill a Boy on the First Date” (1) Buffy the Vampire Slayer banks on a very simple premise: folks dig research. Admittedly, they also love brushes with the supernatural, snappy dialogue, trendy clothes, pretty people, sweltering smoochies, and the occasional bleached-blonde British vampire, but nothing pulls them in like an overhead shot of a man in tweed thumbing through a dusty, leather-bound book. Sadly, squeezing all the requisite trappings of vampire-slaying into forty-five minutes of television time places severe limitations on how much research work can be depicted in each episode. To keep viewers coming back for more, the series teases them with only a few scant moments of tantalizing page-turning per week. (2) Over the course of four seasons, however, the nature of those moments—and the surrounding narrative content which reflects and is reflected in them—has changed dramatically. While Giles and the Sunnydale High School Library formerly centralized and localized the Scooby Gang’s researches for the majority of the first three seasons, their methods and their measures have gradually expanded and adjusted to enable them to understand phenomena and combat adversaries well beyond the realm of everyday vampire-slaying. Research once offered Buffy the Vampire Slayer a degree of internal unity: the team rendezvous in the library regularly served as a kind of familiar, and often comfortingly familial, intermission between an initial encounter with a threat and the informed response to follow.

(August 2012) Amber Leola Smittick, B.S., Abilene Christian University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kathi N. Miner With the continuing influx of teams in the workplace it is important to understand how incivility affects team success. The purpose of this study was to address this topic by investigating the effects of leader incivility towards team members on team outcomes. The team emergent states of team satisfaction, team cohesion, and team commitment were tested as mediators between team leader incivility and team performance. Additionally, leader sex was examined as a moderator to the incivility emergent states relationship. The current study used a sample of female college basketball teams to test the proposed model.
