Work shop title: How to achieve success in attaining your desired career goals - it can be done!!
Dr. Melanie Katsivo will be leading an exciting workshop this year at our inaugural Personal & Professional Pursuit of Excellence Symposium, September 19, 2015! She'll be walking our lucky participants through a set of steps that will highlight skills she believes will allow you achieve success and achieve your desired goals.
"I deliberately drove or took the bus that passed through the institution where I desired to work, on a daily basis."
Understanding the impetus and motivation for choosing to follow this kind of routine will be valuable insights gleaned throughout this workshop. This workshop will be participatory in the sense that not only will you be able to learn from an individual with a wealth of experience in stress management, participants will also be able to share and shed light on some of the stress management strategies they employ in their own lives.
Dr. Katsivo is going to discuss how best to be successful as a newcomers or a longstanding resident in Ontario, and Canada nationally, but will also request participants share their own experiences and hopes that this workshop will provide a holistic perspective on how to attain success.
Symposium co-lead Dr. Perera had a chance to chat with Dr. Katsivo. Listen below to hear Dr. Katsivo herself share some nuggets about her upcoming workshop!
"Learn about the power of thought, focus and
deliberate action."
Bio
Melanie Katsivo Ph.D started off her career as a health researcher in Africa and later on worked for an international NGO. She moved to Canada in 1997 and settled in London, Ontario. The choice of London Ontario as a destination was based on the hope that she could find a job within its large health research network, that is affiliated with the local university. The fact that what she thought was a great academic and experience-based CV was not considered good enough for employment in academia was a rude awakening to the reality of immigrating to Canada; and particularly from a developing country. Three and a half years later, she was offered a professional job at a health research institute that is affiliated with the university and 3 and a half years after that she was offered employment at the university, where she was eventually appointed a director of one of the programs.
