October 2011 Lunch

Locus of Control (not locust…) was the topic of WLN’s October 25, 2011 luncheon. Jamie Bishop, vice president of benefits at Cottingham & Butler, presented this fascinating topic to WLN members and guests. She discussed the definition of the locus of control including both internal and external control. A quick exercise helped attendees evaluate where they are at with their locus of control and how it applies to both success in the workplace and interpersonal relationships. Attendees walked away with immediate things that they can do to develop an internal locus such as set goals, develop decision making and problem solving skills, and paying attention to your self-talk.

WLN thanks Jamie Bishop for this interactive, intriguing topic. Also, thank you to the Best Western Plus for a delicious Italian buffet, and thank you to our members and guest for joining us!
