    2025 FALL MINI-SERIES

    MABC Consultant Toolbox -  

    Self-Awareness in Business  



    Join us for a special FALL MINI-SERIES!

    This fall, we'll be hosting a casual learning and discussion cohort.

    Each month we will review a resource (a short article, podcast, etc.) and discuss our thoughts, tips, tricks and takeaways to support each other in our businesses.

    These three fall sessions will be held virtually via Zoom and will focus on Self-Awareness as a Consultant’s Business Enhancement Tool.

    Self-awareness isn't just personal development—it's a competitive advantage that directly impacts consulting effectiveness, client relationships, and business growth. This series positions self-awareness as a strategic business tool.

    SESSION DATES:
    Monday, September 15 , 3-4pm (via Zoom)

    Monday, October 13, 3-4pm (via Zoom)

    Monday, November 17, 3-4pm (via Zoom)

    Here's what we'll be discussing at the November 17 session:

    Interpersonal Communication: The Consultant’s Superpower

    Our default interpersonal communication patterns affect our client interactions. Recognizing our blind spots in communication give us an advantage in adopting feedback and influencing outcomes.

    Prior to the session, please read this article: Seeking Feedback on Your Communication Will Enhance Your Leadership Presence Today

    Optional: How to Ask for 360 Feedback (with email templates)


    These sessions are open to MABC members only, and registration is required for each session.

    Register for the NOVEMBER 17 session today!

    Thank you to our MABC Member Facilitators for this Mini-Series:
    Wendy Herrmann, Angie Addison, Janel Kalish and Heather Dean
