SUMMARY:Alumni 2.0:  UMMS Shock Trauma Center
DESCRIPTION:As part of this experience\, participants will have the opportunity to see inside one of the highest-volume trauma centers in the nation and witness firsthand what it’s like for the 6\,500 severely injured and critically ill people who come through the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center each year. The experience includes a guided tour of the trauma tower\, with access to the intensive care units\, the Trauma Resuscitation Unit\, and (weather and clinical operations permitting) the helipad. Along the way\, participants will learn about Shock Trauma’s history\, mission\, vision\, and the defining characteristics that have made it internationally renowned in the world of traumacare. \nIn addition\, participants will complete STOP THE BLEED® training\, reflecting Shock Trauma’s vision that all Marylanders be equipped with the skills to intervene in a life-threatening bleeding emergency. Bleeding injuries can happen anywhere\, at any time – after a motor vehicle crash\, a workplace injury\, an act of violence\, or even at home. A person can bleed to death in as little as five minutes\, but with this training\, participants will learn three quick actions that can save the life of someone suffering from rapid blood loss. All participants will leave certificate-trained. \nParticipant waiver required. Bring signed consent form or email to Kristie Barron in advance. Meet at the Shock Trauma Center at 640 W. Lombard Street. Please note this is not a public entrance. Meet Kristie there to get wristbands for hospital entry. The parking garages closest to the building are Penn\, Pratt\, Redwood\, and Baltimore Grand.

SUMMARY:Relational Leadership Workshop with Jim Ferrell
DESCRIPTION:Leadership Howard County and Association of Community Services are excited to partner with each other to bring a lively community discussion with bestselling author\, Jim Ferrell. \nJim Ferrell is a renowned leadership author (known for Leadership and Self-Deception) who founded Withiii Leadership\, and his book You and We presents a relational framework for rethinking work and life\, shifting focus from individuals to the connections between people to foster better leadership\, connection\, and problem-solving in a divided world\, offering practical tools for better human and organizational connectivity. \nCommenting on his most recent publication\, You & We\, Mr. Ferrell states\, ” … (this) is a culmination of all I have learned over my years researching\, training\, advising\, and mentoring leaders and working with them to transform their organizational ecosystems. In a way\, it is a powerful 2.0 to my earlier works—a work that attempts to correct misconceptions and move understanding and application forward in even more dynamic directions. It details not only the best way I have learned to lead and run organizations\, but also the best method for stitching the human family together in the face of our many threats.” \nThank you to our generous sponsor\, APL FCU\, for donating copies of Jim Ferrell’s You and Me book to registered guests who are present during the event. \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:General Membership: Breakfast & Talk with Thomas Bundy
DESCRIPTION:Stronger Together: How Service Strengthens Communities and Brands \nIn today’s divided political climate\, giving back is both a business necessity and a moral responsibility. When government cannot fully support those most in need\, leaders who are generous and collaborative create resilient communities and offer hope and opportunity through unity and service. The practical impact of that civic work is an amplification of your corporate and personal brands\, which will lead to more opportunities. \n  \nBreakfast and Networking 8:00–8:30 a.m. \nProgram from 8:30–9:30 a.m. \nNetworking until 10:00 a.m. \n  \nSupport Dragon Food Pantry \nPlease consider donating to the food pantry. We will be collecting and delivering contributions made at the event. \nThe Howard Community College food pantry partners with the Maryland Food Bank to stock food and personal care items. They also rely on the generous support of students and employees to keep the shelves full.  Donations can be dropped at the pantry\, Hickory Ridge welcome desk\, RCF welcome desk\, or Kathleen Hetherington Hall (health sciences) lobby. \nInterested in volunteering? Consider hosting food drive or participating in a service-learning opportunity to benefit the pantry. Students\, staff\, and community members may also volunteer in the pantry. Visit HCC website or email pantry@howardcc.edu to learn more. \n
