Tune in Saturday, July 4th & Aug 1st @ 11 AM to hear Ira speak with Ross Giombetti of Giombetti Associates. Ross helps people become
more mindful about how they behave and perform as leaders and peers. Through assessment and coaching, he shows you how to ”get your hands on the dials”
to manage your traits and tendencies. How to understand yourself, without labels (“I’m an introvert!”), because we are all on a scale, usually not 100% this or that. They discuss how to manage relationships with people the same and different as you. And why a little positivity (not blind optimism) goes a long way during a crisis
