      <title>OACES Program: Telling Your Organization's Story (24-May-2013)</title>
      <description>&lt;div align="center"&gt;
  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;OACES Program&lt;font size="3"&gt;:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt; Telling Your Organization's Story&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  &lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;

  &lt;div align="left"&gt;

  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;It's not what you say, but what people hear that counts.&amp;nbsp; A startling new study found that Congress is talking at a 10th grade level. The worst offender talks at a 7th grade level, yet the guy has advanced degrees.&amp;nbsp; This might suggest that Congress is doing something wrong. But that's not the case. Professional jargon can confuse and alienate. It's not about talking louder, speaking slowly or enunciating your words.&amp;nbsp; It's about knowing who your audience is and getting on their radar screen.&amp;nbsp; Find out how to communicate so that people will listen.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
A fun and highly interactive session guaranteed to drive the success of non-profit organizations. Expect a combination of lecture, small group discussions and role playing aimed at increasing learning and sharpening skills.&lt;br&gt;

      <title>OACES Program: Influential Leadership (31-May-2013)</title>
      <description>&lt;div align="center"&gt;
  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;OACES Program:&lt;br&gt;
  Influential Leadership&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  &lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;Non-profit professionals frequently assume that having a degree or a particular skill set is all that's necessary for success. Yet, no one succeeds without the support and cooperation of others.&amp;nbsp; The choices you make determine the influence you have to motivate people and achieve your goals. In every organization, it is critical that you understand how to engage and motivate a range of people - donors, board members, staff or volunteers. Your capacity to acquire and maintain the attention of any or all of these people is critical to your success. When this workshop is over, you'll have acquired new skills that you can put to work immediately to significantly expand your influence with others.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
