Berkeley People Management

Power Skills Series and Certificate

The next round of the Berkeley People Management (BPM) Power Skills series is now open, featuring new classes from July 16 to September 24, 2024.

What are Power Skills?

In our ever-evolving world, these non-technical, role-agnostic skills are necessary for navigating the parameters of our unique higher education system.

Power Skills, also called soft skills, transferable skills, or human skills, are skills we must acquire and practice to be successful people leaders. People Managers use these skills daily to enable individuals on their teams to interact successfully, navigate change, and drive overall success in the workplace.

Franklin Covey's Change: How to Turn Uncertainty into Opportunity (for Individual Contributors)

When we recognize that change follows a predictable pattern, we can learn to manage our reactions and understand how to navigate change, both functionally and emotionally. This allows us to consciously determine how to best move forward - even in the most challenging stages. This course will help you understand the human experience of change and develop the skills to successfully navigate change in the workplace to improve results.

Focus on Your Talents with CliftonStrengths

Do you ever wonder why you make deliberate choices, do what you do, and are better at doing some things than others? The reason is talent; a naturally recurring pattern of thought, feeling, or behavior that influences choices and directs actions. You tap into your greatest potential for success through your talents, and the outcome is strength. During this session you will explore your natural talents through the CliftonStrengths assessment which introduces your dominant themes, identifies top strengths, and offers suggestions on how to leverage them.

Franklin Covey's Leading at the Speed of Trust

When trust is low, people become suspicious, guard communication, speculate, and disengage. As a result, productivity grinds to a crawl, and the costs-whether social, emotional, or financial-increase. We call these trust taxes. When trust is high, people become confident and communication, creativity, and engagement improve. As a result, productivity speeds up and costs decrease. We call these trust dividends. Working at the Speed of Trust(r) helps you strengthen your trust signals in every relationship to convert trust taxes into trust dividends and propel yourself and your team further, faster.

Empathy at Work

Many assume empathy is about being there when someone is going through a rough patch. But empathy involves more than just offering comfort. It's really about understanding and embracing others while remaining self-aware. In this course, Dr. Carolyn Goerner digs into the subject of empathy, explaining what it is and how to develop and practice it at work. Learn about the different types of empathy and the benefits of fully embracing the practice of empathy in the workplace. Explore key strategies for effectively communicating empathy to the people you work with. Plus, discover how your past experiences and position can keep you from being more empathetic, how to understand better the mindset of your coworkers and superiors, and how to avoid empathy fatigue.
