We invite you to our next Core Exchange event on March 6 from Noon – 1pm via Zoom!
For this event, we’re honored to welcome Aviad Haramati, PhD, Professor and Director of the Center for Innovation and Leadership in Education at Georgetown University School of Medicine. Dr. Haramati will speak on “The importance of self-care for those who care (about others).”
The COVID-19 pandemic has increased burnout among healthcare providers, faculty, staff, and students. This is especially true for the staff who help others do their work better, including core scientists and administrators. This presentation will focus on why self-care is not a luxury, but a necessity for individual well-being, and how to improve the learning and work environments for the well-being of all.
Please share this invitation to interested colleagues!

All registrants will receive a personal code to take the assessment before the 1/31 event.
During the session, Krystal Clark, M.Ed. (Director, Employee Learning & Engagement) will help us understand our CliftonStrengths assessment results, provide us with ways to unlock our Top 5 Talent Themes, and explore how they impact our work in shared resources.
Please note that registration is required for this event and spaces are limited. We will incur a fee for no-show registrants, so please commit to attending.
