Training Date: August 19, 2011

The Leadership Development Committee of PaLA (the folks that brought you PALS) is pleased to present another library leadership development opportunity with Brenda Reynolds, BKR Consulting. The speaker will be exploring issues of managing from the middle including the memorable MONKEY MANAGEMENT!

Library staff that will benefit the most from this workshop are those caught in the middle between management and employees or even juggling between the needs of a director/board and those of patrons.

Brenda Kline Reynolds is founder, organization development specialist, and principal of BKR Consulting. She brings more than 25 years of educating, facilitating, and managing to her consulting work. She specializes in enhancing congruence between organizational structures, processes, strategies, people, and culture.

The workshop will take place on Friday, August 19, 2011 at the Alexander Family Library in Hummelstown from 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Registration begins at 9:30.

The cost of the workshop is $25 for PaLA members and $50 for non-members; this fee includes lunch. Registration is now open at http://m360.palibraries.org/admin/forms/ViewForm.aspx?id=23974
Contact Paul Proces (pproces@gmail.com) for more information. This workshop is not sponsored by the Dauphin County Library System, but it’s conveniently close for those in our district! This workshop has been partially funded with Federal Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds administered by the Office of Commonwealth Libraries and would not have been possible without the help of the College and Research Division of PaLA. Show your appreciation by becoming a member of PaLA! And if you are a member – thank you!
