WebJunction Webinars
“Purposeful Innovation: Idea
Management for Libraries”
Date & Time: 15 March 2016. 3:00 PM –
4:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time, North America [UTC -4]
Presenter: Christa Werle, Public
Services Project Manager, Sno-Isle Libraries, Washington
Description: Sooner or later, all libraries
need to realign or reinvent services and workflows to respond to shifting
community needs, but there’s often a disconnect between ideas generated by
staff on the front lines and the decisions made by management. Imagine a
library where all staff feel empowered to submit, vote and comment on service
and workflow ideas. To reach this ideal, Sno-Isle Libraries (WA) has embraced
the idea management process in order to consider and approve ideas
holistically, for cost, benefit and time, and before a heavy investment of
resources. Sno-Isle Libraries realized that building a collaborative,
transparent framework to support workflows, change, ideas and community engagement
is essential to creating a culture of purposeful innovation. During this
webinar, you’ll gain a clear understanding of the "what" and
"why" of idea management, hear lessons learned, and leave with tools
to empower staff to lead from any position by sharing their ideas.
“Supervisor Success: Development
Programs That Work”
Date & Time: 31 March 2016. 1:00
PM – 4:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time, North America [UTC -4]
Description: As our profession transforms and
our work changes, nurturing skillful and competent supervisors has become a
priority for all types of libraries. Rising to the challenge, many people are
creating and offering learning and development programs in their libraries.
Whether we hire outside consultants or create in-house programs, we could all
benefit from knowing the best practices. Let’s learn together about the most
effective and low-cost options for supervisor development programs, and how to
strategically promote implementation of those programs in our
organizations. And let’s explore how we might motivate our supervisors to fully
benefit from their learning.
If
you are interested in developing supervisor training programs for your library,
get this one-day, free symposium on your calendar! This online event
will bring together some of the most effective practices for supporting
supervisor development. You’ll hear from a variety of different libraries about
their programs so that you can begin thinking about offering your own.
You
can attend any or all of the three
sessions. There will be a short break in between the sessions, and your
registration link will work the entire time. All presentations will be recorded
and available after the symposium is completed.
