Speak Your Mind: A Conversation on Same-Sex Topics
Who: The Institute on the Common Good & The Office for Diversity
What: Open Forum on Same-Sex Issues
When: Tuesday, Oct. 20 from 4 to 5:30 p.m.
Where: Regis Lowell Campus (location TBA)
One forum is for the heterosexual members of the Regis community and the other for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning and intersex (LGBTQI) members of the Regis community. Location of the heterosexual forum will be announced in early September. The purpose of the conversation is to provide an opportunity for participants to share experiences on their perspective on same-sex orientation. Participants will be encouraged to share personal stories and experiences to add to the conversation. The event is open to students, faculty, staff and all members of the Regis community.
If you are interested in attending the LGBTQI conversation, please contact Sandra Mitchell, assistant provost for Diversity, at smitchel@regis.edu or 303-964-5304.The rationale for having two separate forums on Oct. 20 is to allow for individuals within each group a safe space to express views that might be uncomfortable to express in the company of individuals from the other group. A single group (both LGBTQI and heterosexual)event will be hosted in early spring 2010, when heterosexuals and LGBTQI individuals on campus will meet for a joint dialogue.

| Leadership Currency: Harnessing Connective Power |
Who: The Institute on the Common Good
What: Educational Workshop on Effective Leadership
When: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 4:00pm - Friday, January 29, 2010 at 3:00pm
What’s your level of Collaborative Leadership? In January 2010, the Institute on the Common Good is partnering with three consultant-coaches to start a yearlong experience for leaders and high level managers who want to boost their organizational performance. This distinctive program increases leader agility, which boosts collaborative performance. This is especially useful for complex and unresolved issues. We enable individuals to align their work with their life’s purpose, creating passion, focus, and significantly improved results. Leaders discover how to see and act from the emerging futures, rather than from outdated ideas and structures. The group will meet four times over the course of the year and includes monthly interaction by phone and online with ICG coaches and with their peers. For more information contact Fredricka Brown at 303-458-4967 or fbrown@regis.edu
