Whether your goal is as small as getting out every day to walk more or as large as expanding your business pivoting to survive and thrive through COVID-19 or implementing a multimillion-dollar enterprise resource planning (ERP) system—there’s a simple but powerful change management method that can help you successfully get from point A to point B. To register click here: https://njawbo.growthzoneapp.com/ap/Events/Register/zLEm85xL?sourceTypeId=Website As a business owner you know that success—in work or in life—depends not only on your ability to see what’s working and what’s not to find new opportunities and to make decisions. In this interactive mini-workshop psychologist Margaret Ng presents Jonathan Haidt’s “rider elephant path” analogy that provides a fun and succinct framework for thinking about the elements of change. Learning powerful change management techniques that can be used in any situation requiring change will also be discussed. With input from participants together we’ll discuss real-world examples of how to apply this framework to your business and everyday life (bring your challenges!) including techniques for staying motivated and removing obstacles. Margaret Keymetian Ng president and CEO of M3E Change Associates is an organizational psychologist and certified change management professional who is dedicated to helping organizations effectively manage major change — enabling them to operate efficiently achieve business objectives and ensure that employees feel treated with respect and integrity.

Our virtual Garden Discoveries classes are designed to inspire young children about the natural world around them. Since each child learns in a different way, every class examines one topic through stories, outdoor exploration (done in your own backyard), and hands-on activities. Each class will begin with a Zoom Circle Time and story, as well as a guided activity and Q&A period.  At the conclusion of our virtual class (approximately 20-25 minutes), students are encouraged to go outside with a parent or caregiver to complete an outdoor activity related to the topic of the day.  Activity Kits will need to be picked up at Van Vleck House & Gardens prior to the class.   Click Here to register
