SUMMARY:Kiki's Delivery Service 35th Aniv. 2024 (Fathom Event)
DESCRIPTION:From the legendary Studio Ghibli and director Hayao Miyazaki comes “Kiki’s Delivery Service”\, the beloved coming-of-age story of a resourceful young witch who uses her broom to create a delivery service\, only to lose her gift of flight in a moment of self-doubt. It is tradition for all young witches to leave their families on the night of a full moon and set out into the wide world to learn their craft. When that night comes for Kiki\, she embarks on her life journey with her chatty black cat\, Jiji\, landing the next morning in a sea-side village\, where a bakery owner hires her to make deliveries. Rarely has the animator’s art been so brilliantly rendered as in this delightfully imaginative film – a beautiful and timeless story of a young girl finding her way in the world. Dubbed in English on July 23 and subtitled on July 24\, this special two-day event will also feature GKIDS Mini-Fest\, an ongoing festival of the best animated shorts from around the world.\n\nPlaying on 10/26 – 10/30 at:\nCelebration NorthCelebration SouthCelebration LansingCelebration CarouselCelebration CrossroadsCelebration Rivertown\nAssociated Business: Celebration Cinema

SUMMARY:The Dark Side: Watch Out for the Dark Side – It Will Be Watching Out for You
DESCRIPTION:While most employers attempt to build a positive culture in their organizations\, there are times when they are faced with the dark side. The news often reports criminal convictions of employees who have acted against their companies through nefarious means. Not often reported is the cost extracted through lost productivity\, internal political strife\, and turnover of higher-quality talent. Some applicants will see employment opportunity as a criminal opportunity and inevitably engage in counterproductive—or even destructive—behavior. Both research and experience have demonstrated the need for executives and managers to understand the dark side. Researchers have identified what they call the “The Dark Triad” of personality—psychopathy\, sociopathy\, and Machiavellianism. This seminar is designed to help managers recognize and address these sub-clinical psychopathological characteristics in the workplace. Particular attention will be paid to the interview and assessment process to understand how employees with dark motives access\, accumulate\, and abuse power for personal gain at an organizational cost. Such behavior can be devasting for a company—some companies will not survive.  \nAre you hiring? If you attend this seminar\, you will be better prepared to interview the next smiling sociopath who would like to have a job in your company.  \nAssociated Business: THE PSYCON COMPANY

SUMMARY:The Leadership Challenge: Self Empowered
DESCRIPTION:Self Empowered introduces individuals to the language of leadership through the lens of their own behaviors. Everyone receives a personalized report with narrative feedback about their leadership skills and behaviors. Their report includes individualized tips and guidance on what leadership skills they naturally utilize and the areas where they can improve. The facilitated learning experience that follows brings the insights from the report to life with impactful activities\, discussions\, and video featuring real-world situations.
