Good afternoon I hope that you are keeping well and enjoying the fall term. I am pleased to tell you that Learning & Organizational Development (LOD) has opened workshops in our LODReg tool to the end November. Please register at: https://umanitoba.gosignmeup.com/Public/Course/Browse We expect that our December workshops will open for registration in a few weeks. Some workshops that may interest you include: Annual Review & Development Plan - November 4. Managers, Supervisors, and those responsible for providing feedback and direction on the work performed by others are encouraged to complete this workshop which covers conducting annual performance reviews, using one of the forms available from Human Resources, and creating employee development plans. UM Collective Agreements (Support Staff) - November 5. This workshop is designed for all UM managers and supervisors and provides a high level introduction to staff relations responsibilities related to collective agreements with support staff. This session focuses on our human resource management responsibilities and the importance of policies, collective agreements, best hiring practices, performance management, discipline, sick leave and other related areas. Ethics: Decisions and Impacts - November 13. NEW THIS YEAR: In this workshop we will provide a framework for making decisions when ethics are in play. We will also examine the impacts of ethical decisions and how we might address situations where a decision that has been made may not be ethically sound. **This is a four-hour workshop. This workshop was developed in 2025 and is unique from the previous "Ethics in the Workplace" and "Ethics: Organizational Stewardship" workshops offered by LOD previously. Hiring in Good Ways - November 20. It is important to consider Indigenous-specific hiring practices, and those involved in hiring will benefit from increasing their awareness and understanding of Indigenous history and culture. During this session, participants will examine the historical relationships between Indigenous peoples and post-secondary institutions and explore the potential impact of historical relationships on Indigenous applicants. Presentation Skills - November 20. Any of us may be called upon to make a presentation, at a meeting, during an interview or when trying to convince or influence others. Knowing how to prepare, to use our voice, and how to organize our materials can help us to engage our audience and share our message. This workshop will provide you with tools to help you to prepare your presentations, use your V.O.I.C.E. and review the use of the most common visual aids.
