Monday, November 14th, 2022; 10:30am-12:30pm at Platteville Public Library. Being a library director means you often can, and do, do it all! It can be a challenge to find the balance between your personal and professional life, but organization, planning and creativity can all help make time for what's important to you. But so can flexing the muscles that allow us to let go of what we can't control, manage expectations (including our own), and appreciate that 'less than perfect' can be the secret to a balanced life. Join us to explore ideas to better delegate, cross train, and collaborate, and how to live with a job done well-enough, in service of yourself and your community.
This program is worth 2 hours toward director certification. Platteville Public Library is located at 225 W Main St, Platteville, WI 53818. For questions, contact Shauna at SWLS, skoszegi@swls.org.
