For our April 2012 meeting, Steven Gower, CSP will be speaking to our chapter about the power of perception over reality in human resources. This presentation enables participants to discover afresh that there is much more to integrity or lack of integrity within relationships than a paradigm that merely equals the sum of attitude and behavior. What ultimately informs relationships and effective productivity is not the reality of what two people think and do but the perception two people each have about the attitude and behavior of the other. There can be tremendous difference between what one actually feels and does and what another perceives him to feel and do.

Participants will discover that their attitudes and actions do not automatically flow untarnished to team member. Perception gets in the way due to their layers of thatch or history!
