The Staff Senate Professional Development Committee is pleased to announce a 45-minute presentation titled "Getting Things Done in a World That Doesn’t Want You To" by Bassam Tarazi. Imagine you are someone who has moves to make and something to give. You may not be looking to change the world but you’re ready to change your moment. The trouble is that you can’t seem to get to the one thing that’s most important because you’re busy, tired, don’t know where to start or you doubt if you even have it in you. Don't worry, you’re not alone. There is a way through. The problem isn’t you; the problem is the problem.
