Juneteenth

Fri, 06/19/2020 - 10:48am -- Anonymous

Today is the 155th anniversary when black slaves received the news in Texas of their freedom from Federal soldiers; two and half years after the Civil War ended and the Emancipation Proclamation.  Really not that long ago. There have been additional amendments and legislation to secure other freedoms including the 13th Amendment (to abolish slavery, Dec. 1865) and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Dear ACEL Community, 

The tragic deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor (only three of the many unjust deaths in the BIPOC community) over the last several months have amplified the long history of systemic racism in this country. Please know this message comes from a genuine place of care and concern; also that words alone cannot solve or address the racial injustices in the U.S., rather this work will involve our daily intentions, actions, and behaviors. 

Racial Injustice

As we start our Monday after such an emotionally charged weekend, I wanted to acknowledge the range of emotions that spans our community from this last week’s events – sadness, confusion, hurt, and anger. I want to ensure we are taking care of each other during this time and thought it was timely to remind you of an important resource for your wellbeing. The Ohio State University has a robust Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that is here to support all employees with a host of resources.

In a world that is constantly moving, where productivity and results are often front and center, emotional intelligence (EI) can feel like a quiet, invisible force. However, EI is a pillar of personal and professional success, shaping how we interact with others, make decisions and navigate life's challenges.

When I was applying to the Fourth Cohort of the AgOne Program the main thought in my mind was using this opportunity to grow in my role as a Leader. From looking at my true self, to building my own personal legacy and learning to be a stronger leader, I found the topics inspiring and thought provoking.

Building Relationships is Part of the Job

Wed, 08/30/2023 - 3:13pm -- pollard.145@osu.edu

“Your ability to work on cross-functional teams, in matrix organizations, or across organizational boundaries is enhanced by knowing lots of people. Part of working in an organization demands that you find time to create and maintain the relationships you need to be successful.

With today’s hurry-up pace, we’ve lost the notion of making time for other people. Events designed to get employees together after work no longer hold the same interest. We eat at our desk, decline invitations for coffee, and rush to get off work.

Embrace Deep Fun

Wed, 08/30/2023 - 3:08pm -- pollard.145@osu.edu

“For years now, groups have sought to forge culture by filling offices with ping-pong tables, beanbag chairs, and happy hours. Despite this, engagement levels in these places barely budge. But there’s a better way, and it’s built on a simple distinction: Fun comes in two varieties, shallow and deep.

Shallow fun is the sugary, amusement-park enjoyment of doing pleasurable things together: games, laughter, and music. It affects groups like an adrenaline shot: It adds energy, then quickly wears off.
