These economic times have prompted us to have more management discussions than ever before. This presentation by?Gail Warren?and?Jean Holcomb?helps prepare the library director/manager to deal with pessimistic focus. The program helps identify three elements of the ?explanatory style? after completing a model assessment tool. Learn some techniques for challenging pessimistic thinking and building a positive operating framework.
