WB: Bill Deering: Overcoming Obstacles with Lunch

In partnership with Disability Resources, we are excited to bring motivational speaker, Bill Deering to MPTC to talk about “Overcoming Obstacles” during National Disability Awareness Month. Lunch will be provided after his talk.
Bill Deering was often picked-on for his stuttering. As a teenager he felt he had no friends, was gaining weight, and was failing almost all of his classes. The summer before his junior year of high school, Bill went out for the football team. He finally felt accepted and included and no one laughed at him. He made friends, lost weight, improved his grades, and felt that being a part of a team, receiving support and encouragement, he could achieve anything. Eventually he discovered that he could achieve great things without being stopped by his fear of stuttering.
Come and listen to Bill’s story and enjoy food and fellowship.
If you’re interested, please RSVP to Sandy Botham at sbotham@morainepark.edu or (262)335-5743 by Friday, October 8th,

Onboarding: How to Successfully Integrate New Employees
2021-10-13 08:00 - 12:00 | Virtual
Most would agree that introductions to company processes and policies are a “must” when bringing in a new hire. Yet, it’s also just as important to help new hires gain a comprehensive view of their role and establish an effective network of support. Relationships and roles have the greatest impact on an employee’s immediate satisfaction and productivity in their new position. Clear expectations between a manager and his/her direct reports can make the difference between a relationship who succeeds and one who fails. Onboarding is the training course you need to help your new hires build a foundation for success from the get-go. At its core is the Onboarding Model with four overlapping elements — Resources, Rules, Relationships, and Roles. Using these elements as a cornerstone in the onboarding process, management learn how to become an active participant in helping new hires not only accelerate their involvement, but establish a groundwork for continual progression.
