AREA AGENCY ON AGING EDUCATIONAL SEMINAR 

WHO RUFFLES YOUR FEATHERS? 

THURSDAY,  MARCH 22, 2018

                                                                      DESCRIPTION

Do you ever wonder if your spouse or one of your co-workers is from another planet?  How irritated do you get when that client shows up 30 minutes early for an appointment one more time?  Do you get frustrated that a task you find so difficult a co-worker or family member finds so easy?  The knowledge we have about the brain and its natural tendency toward having a "dominance" suggests that, by understanding these intricacies, we can assume a new perspective on the work we do, the people we serve, and the elements that can create stress in our lives.

                                                                       OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this program, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the basic characteristics described in the four-quadrant brain model
  • Discuss this relationship to one's own and others' ability to accomplish certain tasks
  • Relate the different thinking patterns to incidents of personal and/or professional frustrations
  • Correlate the various quadrant characteristics with the creative problem-solving process
