SUMMARY:CSU's Got Talent | ​Building Drama-Resilience: Evidence-Based Methods for Transforming Conflict with Compassionate Accountability
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online via Zoom; Connection details provided upon registration\n\nFacilitated By:\nNate Reiger\, Ph.D.\nNext Element\nNate Regier\, PhD\, is a co-founder and CEO of Next Element. He is a pioneering voice on Compassionate Accountability and a globally recognized expert on leadership communication\, generative conflict\, flourishing teams\, and culture transformation. Recognized as a Top 100 keynote speaker\, Nate has authored four books\, hosts The Compassionate Accountability Podcast\, writes a weekly blog\, contributes to multiple industry publications\, and is a regular guest on podcasts.\n \nDescription:\nDrama is the mismanagement of conflict and diverts energy precious away from connection and results. Conflict\, when managed properly\, can provide considerable energy for positive outcomes. Drama Resilience is a person’s capacity to use conflict in productive vs. destructive ways\, and can be reliably measured. This session will apply new research on the measurement of Drama Resilience\, and how Compassionate Accountability can help people build their drama-resilience by applying an evidence-based method for engaging conflict in a way that affirms the value\, capability\, and responsibility of all parties involved. Leave with new insight for quantifying and developing drama-resilience\, and a template for turning conflict into new opportunities for trust\, innovation\, and impact. Bonus! Try Next Element’s Compassionate Accountability Assessment and receive a Snapshot Report with your Drama Resilience Index.​ \n  \n\nRegister Here To Join \nIf you are interested in registering for this session or any future session of CSU’s Got Talent\, please use the “Register with Email” button on the landing page to register. \n

SUMMARY:CSU's Got Talent | ​Somebody Should Do Something: How Anyone Can Help Create Social Change—The CSU Edition
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online via Zoom; Connection details provided upon registration\n\nFacilitated By:\nDr. Alex Madva\nAlex Madva is Professor of Philosophy\, Director of the California Center for Ethics and Policy\, and Co-Director of the Digital Humanities Consortium at Cal Poly Pomona. ​He received his BA in Philosophy and English at Tufts University and his MA and Ph.D. from Columbia University.​ \n​Dr. Madva’s research and teaching inform our understanding of the mind and the ethics and politics of discrimination\, bias\, and social change. He has run numerous workshops and presentations on bias\, impostor feelings\, Title IX\, ideological diversity\, and the importance of intergroup cooperation. ​\n\nAdditionally\, Dr. Madva has written for venues including The New York Times\, and his research has been profiled in outlets including Vox\, The Good Men Project\, and La Nación. He has also been interviewed across a variety of platforms\, including local Fox News in Chicago\, Talk Radio Europe\, Houston Public Radio\, Sirius XM\, and a variety of podcasts.\n  \nDescription:\nChanging the world is difficult. One reason is that the most important problems\, like climate change\, racism\, and poverty\, are structural. They emerge from our collective practices: laws\, economies\, history\, culture\, norms\, and built environments. The dilemma is that there is no way to make structural change without individual people making different—more structure-facing—decisions. In this presentation by Somebody Should Do Something co-author Alex Madva\, learn how we\, as CSU administrators\, employees\, and faculty\, can connect our personal choices and social roles to structural change\, and why individual choices matter\, though not in the way people usually think.​​ \n  \n\nRegister Here To Join \nIf you are interested in registering for this session or any future session of CSU’s Got Talent\, please use the “Register with Email” button on the landing page to register.

DESCRIPTION:Location: Online via Zoom; Connection details provided upon registration\n\nFacilitated By:\nDr. Alane Daugherty\nDr. Alane Daugherty is a full-time lecturer in Cal Poly Pomona’s Kinesiology Department and co-director of the Mind and Heart Research Lab on campus.

Her work has been featured in The Washington Post\, Fortune\, Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper\, Women’s World\, and others. Dr. Daugherty routinely presents on topics related to somatic healing\, and emotional literacy.\n \nDescription:\nDo you often feel stressed or anxious\, as if your nervous system is always on? Tension\, overwhelm and shutdown are increasingly common in today’s world blocking our ability to thrive. Further\, neuroscience shows that the more we experience stress or anxiety\, the more our mind/body makes these our default states. Without realizing it\, we train ourselves to stay reactive\, and act accordingly. In this presentation\, Dr. Alane Daugherty explains how an overactivated nervous system develops and how to retrain it. She’ll introduce somatic awareness\, building a zone of resilience\, and returning to calm as key practices for restoring balance. You’ll leave with understanding\, practical tools\, and a plan to reset your stress response and cultivate greater calm in daily life.​​​ \n  \n\nRegister Here To Join \nIf you are interested in registering for this session or any future session of CSU’s Got Talent\, please use the “Register with Email” button on the landing page to register.
