| Apr 18 Strengthsfinder 2.0 |
What do you believe is more powerful in ensuring your professional success, fixing your weaknesses or further developing your strengths? According to years of research by The Gallup Organization, the source of our greatness lies not in focusing our energy on remediating weaknesses but rather in identifying and building on our natural talents. Adding skills and knowledge to natural talents produces strengths and consistent, near perfect performance. The key to achieving success through a strengths-based approach is identifying our natural talents and then consciously choosing to strengthen and utilize them. Weaknesses simply become things about ourselves we learn to manage, saving the best part of our energy and attention to building our strengths.
This course will introduce students to the strengths-based philosophy as well as providing the opportunity to explore their strengths through the StrengthsFinder 2.0 assessment*, set up specific goals and action items, and explore how to better utilize strengths in both your professional and personal life. |

| Apr 23 Third Space: Artists on Main Street Training |
The Winona Main Street Program is seeking artist submissions for “Third Space,” a series a programs that will be held outside on Third Street in Downtown Winona from May-October. Funding up to $1000 each for approximately 12 projects is available, but artists must attend one of two workshops to be held on April 23 or 24.
Third Space is Winona’s Artist on Main Street Grant, which is funded through the Bush Foundation with support from Springboard for the Arts. The goal of Third Space is to create free programming for the public to be held outside on Third Street between Center Street and Lafayette Street, to encourage outdoor activity downtown beyond the borders of Levee Park and to encourage foot traffic in the downtown business district. This artist-led placemaking initiative is meant to be varied, from passive programming to interactive events, and include a broad cross-section of Winona’s population from youth to seniors, and may be focused on one specific part of the population.
All artists are encouraged to apply, including people who don’t view themselves as “traditional” artists or enjoy art-based activities as a hobby. There will be approximately 12 grants at $1000 awarded, featuring smaller events as well as two to three signature events that will be awarded a slightly higher amount.
Anyone with interest in applying is required to attend a free training work shop, which will be offered twice. |

| Apr 27 Goal Planning: Employee and Employer Goal Planning and Execution |
In many workplaces, goals are like New Year’s resolutions. They are set with great expectations, rely on plans built on wishful thinking, and abandoned without ever achieving success. For many people, the goal setting and execution process goes something like this: set a goal, start to execute, lose momentum, time passes, admit failure, and repeat this cycle by setting a new goal. Would you like to know how to avoid common “failure points” that keep people from achieving their goals? This class includes techniques for writing goals, improving time management and implementation, measuring progress, adjusting processes, and creating an environment for success. In addition to focusing on the tasks and metrics involved with setting and executing goals, this class covers the human factors
(e.g., values, motivation) that often impact whether or not you and your company’s goals will be met.
