As a learning specialist, you have a limited time during your one-to-one appointment with students in order to facilitate a change. Building rapport and connection is essential so that the student is receptive to the service being provided. This eKeynote will provide tips on how to connect with students in a short amount of time. Drawing from “The Heart of Laser-Focused Coaching” by Marion Franklin, this session will also equip you with powerful questions to discover what a student really needs and facilitate a lasting transformation.

Richard Lee-Thai is a TEDx Speaker, Connection Consultant, and co-author. His TEDx talk: “How to Find Excuses to Connect” outlines how people can make meaningful connections easier. His ultimate vision is to create a world without loneliness. Growing up, we never had classes on social skills. Addressing this lack of education, Richard engages audiences with interactive presentations that leave them feeling more socially confident and equipped with tools to make meaningful connections in their personal and professional lives. He is also a podcaster, Associate Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation, and Adjunct Instructor at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT). His motto is: “You never know how any connection can transform your life.” Connections can happen anywhere and anytime, so he encourages you

Thank you for taking the time to join our LSAC community today. Before we begin, we would like to pause to intentionally express our gratitude for the land we are on today and to all the Indigenous Peoples past, present and future that have and continue to be stewards of these lands. We recognize that moving forward we are mutually responsible for the caretaking and preservation of this land for future generations.

We commit to co-creating an accountable space. In our LSAC community, we are committed to creating an accountable space where we welcome individual growth, learning, and unlearning. In this space, we recognize and gently remind one another that we are all tender humans with our own stories and experiences, both positive and negative. We aim to lead with kindness, openness, and patience as we identify and break down barriers to create a safer space for us all.
