What is Shannon’s Favorite Course?

November 13th is World Kindness Day, which seemed like a good opportunity to see what in our library can help our customers honor kindness. As a leader, I was drawn to the Small Acts of Kindness series by Mindscaling. Mindscaling is a great content partner that provides us thoughtful microlearning for leaders to help them navigate leadership and management. Small Acts of Kindness by Mindscaling is made of four short modules, including Assume Best Intentions, Create Energy Around You, Kindness is the Killer App, and Nourish Your Team. I particularly liked the module on assuming best intentions. As a leader, I feel that this is one of the most important things I can bring to work with me every day. By assuming that people are coming to the situation with the best intentions, it becomes easier to communicate and resolve issues, with an understanding that everyone is trying their best.
