Personality Development Tips by RAVINDRA PUJARI
Personality development is about celebrating one's uniqueness and individual traits by igniting dormant passions. It involves moving from an inert state to a motivated and joyous living through enthusiasm, positive thinking, self-discipline, communication skills, and other traits.

Personality development and self confidence building
This document discusses various aspects of personality development and self-confidence building. It addresses identifying oneself, developing a positive attitude, understanding success, and managing time. It emphasizes the importance of self-knowledge, managing stress, building relationships, and conducting regular SWOT analyses.

The Art of Giving and Receiving Feedback
In healthcare organizations, it is mission critical that leaders and managers possess the skills to deliver direct, honest feedback to supervisees and peers. Currently, many managers receive minimal training on how to provide concrete feedback plus coaching that can help team members improve their performance. As a result, many supervisees receive feedback that is conflicting, confusing, or no feedback at all. In this workshop, Grace Ng will discuss the current challenges in giving and receiving feedback, provide frameworks and tools that can be applied in feedback conversations, and share her vision for moving towards a culture of feedback and learning.

The challenges of scaling a social media presence with consistent brand and tone become readily apparent at large institutions—especially with differing goals and audiences across the spectrum. In this session, we’ll look at four different social media footprints at the University of Florida—UF Social, UF Health, The Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, and UF Athletics—and identify best practices and governance structures within each, and how each works to break through institutional silos to tell the school’s story.

The web gives us enormous flexible in modifying our narrative through iterative change, furthering conversions and success of our campaigns. We'll look at 20 tips for creating compelling web content that produces results.
Metropolis and Gotham: Two Approaches to Enterprise Site Development
In the last five years, UF Health's web services team has launched two enterprise-wide web projects supporting six colleges, six hospitals, and 15,000 staff and students. Our Metropolis was an external web presence supporting over 600 websites, built in the light of day as a positive affirmation of our future as an organization. Our Gotham was a new intranet, built on social networking and web best practices, constructed internally and away from the light, but nonetheless as important. This talk will focus on the strategies used in building both and the lessons learned in the process:
Building momentum for the project and guiding consensus versus leveraging political capital and goodwill
Creating your Justice League - a team of unique and overlapping skill sets that can support the infrastructure
Overcoming the rogues gallery of barriers that threaten to stall or derail the project, or worse, destroy team morale

Responsive Web Design presents new challenge for content strategists: determining what content is presented and in what format. While each site and situation is unique, it's clear that your content needs to be tailored specifically to your audience's needs.
In this session, I discuss twenty tips for writing targeting, persuasive content for your audiences and look at examples from current web sites to help develop best practices for your organization.
Voyage of the Beagle: Biology, Evolution, and Content Strategy
“In the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed.” ― Charles Darwin.
Despite being creatures made of pixels, codes, and thought, websites are living entities that follow principles similar to the evolutionary principles that predict how life changes and adapts. Using concepts from biology and the natural sciences, we'll look at the evolution of the University of Florida Health web presence, a three year process that eventually affected over 500 academic sites, six hospitals, hundreds of medical clinics, and eventually an entire university redesign. You're not going to need a lab coat or safety goggles as Stevens investigates how many finches are needed to make a decent digital birdhouse, genetic engineering (how to take learned principles and splice them into new projects), order and understanding through taxonomy, or punctuated equilibrium (and how to affect what comes next).

From the World War to the World Wide HEWEB
Someone once said "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." General Duke Abernathy said "Knowing is Half the Battle." General Anthony Clement McAuliffe said "Nuts!"
All of these are true. History gives us insight into the human condition and provides lessons for all fields. Let's take a look at some of the stories of World War II - of strategies, tactics, technology, and planning - and how they relate to web design and development in higher education today. By the end, maybe we'll have a few insights on how to bridge the communication gaps between our audiences, our authors, and ourselves.
