Seminars at Hadley Presents: The Straight Skinny About Self-Esteem

Date: Thursday, November 4, 2010

Time: 11AM CDT, 16:00 GMT

Some psychologists view self-esteem as the most important gift we can give

ourselves.

Nathaniel Branden, self-esteem theorist and trainer, says: "The level of our

self-esteem has profound consequences for every aspect of our existence—how we

operate in the workplace, how we deal with people, how high we are likely to

rise, how much we are likely to achieve."

It’s easy to see why having and understanding healthy self-esteem is important.

Join Seminars at Hadley as Dr. Dean Tuttle, Hadley Instructor Naomi Tuttle, and

Hadley Texas Outreach Coordinator Billy Brookshire discuss self-esteem: What is

it? How does blindness affect it? What are its components? How can

practitioners and individuals influence it?

This 60 minute seminar will be moderated by Billy Brookshire, Hadley Outreach

Coordinator. A question and answer session will be included as part of the

seminar.

As always, listening to the seminar remains free of charge. There is a US $25

fee associated with completing the seminar for credit (1 CE hour).

Professionals interested in receiving continuing education credit will be

required to successfully complete a quiz and brief survey before a certificate

is issued. (ACVREP approval pending)
