Often, managers and educators put together diverse teams or groups, but then work in ways that fail to reap the benefits of that diversity. This highly interactive workshop offers both a framework and practical tips for leveraging the power of diverse teams, optimizing innovation, and strengthening organizational decision-making. It invites participants to become intentional and strategic about this work. Designed for supervisors who lead diverse teams and faculty members who want to leverage diversity to enhance classroom learning or to strengthen students’ readiness to embrace diversity in community settings. 
Workshop Description:
Digital Instruction and Information Services (DIIS) is offering an opportunity for members of the IC community to learn more about and interact with the Beam Pro telepresence robot by Suitable Technologies. In addition to presenting at Ed Tech Day on March 24th, the company is generously offering additional sessions on Wednesday, March 23 and will allow the device to remain on campus the following week for hands on exploration in selected IC departments or schools.
Working outside the United States can be simple or more complicated than you imagined, depending on what you want to do or where in the world you want to go. This workshop will help you figure out how to job search and network internationally, relocate and adjust to new cultural norms, and offer best practices for launching an international career.
