Childcare Symposium: Practices, Policies, and Strategies to Move Utah Forward

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Utah families and a growing number of employers often name access to high-quality, affordable childcare as a key barrier to prosperity in our state, especially for low- and moderate-income families. The questions then become: How can we increase childcare access and affordability in Utah so our families and workplaces can thrive? Why is this topic becoming more and more important for employers today? What childcare resources can employers provide to their workers? What public policies can help families and employers in Utah regarding childcare? What are policy challenges and opportunities? What are general challenges, strategies, and solutions for Utah families regarding childcare? Overall, this two-hour online symposium will focus on practices, policies, and strategies that can move Utah forward.

Spiritual Wellness Presentation

Panel Discussion/Presentation

At its core, spiritual well-being is about feeling “connected” with something bigger or outside of ourselves that gives our lives a sense of meaning, purpose, and peace. While it’s not necessarily about religion (although for many, it is), this sense of “wholeness” goes hand in hand with feeling heard or seen. But feeling deeply appreciated for all of who you are can be hard when religious differences get in the way! In this mini-workshop, we will explore how to bust the religious divides on campus while cultivating skills for enhancing spiritual well-being. We’ll do this through a fun activity that will help you make new friends while learning to bridge religious differences in meaningful ways.

Salary Negotiation for Women: The Latest Research & Cutting-Edge Best Practices

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Women face unique challenges when it comes to negotiating. Research continues to confirm that the gender wage gap persists even when taking into consideration job level, differences in preferences, and family leave. Gender differences in salary negotiations could be one of several determinants of perpetual gender differences in labor market outcomes. Yet, this gap is multi-dimensional and complex.

Three internationally known scholars will share their research on salary negotiation for women as it relates to gender differences and challenges. They will also offer research-based skills, tools, and strategies that will not only assist women in negotiating more effectively but will also benefit managers and leaders who are focused on addressing Utah’s vast talent shortage by recruiting and retaining more women employees.

Laughter Seminar

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Did you know that stress can impact your ability to organize, focus, and remember? Laughter is a natural stress management tool we can all use to increase our productivity and performance. Laughing is one of the best ways to exercise your body and your mind. Even 30 minutes of laughter has been shown to increase aerobic capacity, lower heart rate, lower blood pressure, and increase positive emotions. Stress releases hormones (adrenaline & cortisol) that exacerbate conditions like depression and anxiety; laughter releases hormones (dopamine & serotonin) that support mental health and well-being. Come laugh and destress. Join us in person at the Eccles Conference Center 205/207 or register for our virtual presentation: https://usu-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_F0wOVTJhSlK4z0DutbL7yA
