Everyone has a different style of learning, working, and communicating. One style is not necessarily better than another. In this session, participants will discover: their personal learning/communication style; how understanding the learning and communication styles of others can prevent tension, misunderstanding and stress in the workplace; and how to maximize your own personal style. This webinar is pre-recorded on the Claremont website. To access it, create a login and go to the Webinar tab.

This week we welcome 7 new employees, who will be working with our Facilities, Projects, PYC, and our Alcatraz team.
