      <title>May Chapter Meeting (Wed, May 23, 2012)</title>
      <description>&lt;h3 class="contStyleExcHeadingColored"&gt;Learning, Strategy, and Organizational Success&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Panel Discussion&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;div&gt;
      Executives and their learning leaders from Scripps Healthcare and Kleinfelder will describe how they collaborate to create corporate value. JFK spoke about learning as integral to success, Peter Senge discusses the discipline of a learning organization. This panel discussion spells out how executives and Learning &amp;amp; Development leaders put these ideas to action. We will explore how the C-suite and learning centers set goals and metrics, collaborate for results, and overcome challenges.
    &lt;/div&gt;

    &lt;div&gt;
      &lt;br&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

    &lt;div&gt;
      Veronica Zaman and Judy Blum from Scripps Healthcare with Laura Trozzi and Linda Lannen from Kleinfelder will be moderated by Eric Kaufmann of Sagatica. This conversation is not theory, but the practice of powerful Learning &amp;amp; Development application, value, and organization success.&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;Schedule:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;

  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Registration &amp;amp; Networking 5:45 – 6:30 PM&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;Program 6:30 – 8:00 PM&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;

      <title>Coaching in Organizations SIG: Skill-builder Interest Group (Tue, June 12, 2012)</title>
      <description>&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;"&gt;Our June meeting will include a presentation by Jordan Goldrich. &amp;nbsp;Jordan draws on his background as a Chief Operations Officer, Executive Coach, Licensed Therapist and Certified Employee Assistance Professional to help both seasoned and emerging business executives succeed. He provides consultation and coaching as well as assuming direct responsibility for managing projects. &amp;nbsp;He is also an adjunct coach for the Center for Creative Leadership.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;div&gt;
    &amp;nbsp;
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    Jordan will be speaking on &lt;i&gt;Who's got the "monkey": Coaching traps in performance improvement coaching&lt;/i&gt;. &amp;nbsp;We will talk about ways to handle being assigned to “fix” an employee.
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;b&gt;What’s a SIG?&lt;/b&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    We offer a small group environment to discuss a particular area of the learning and development field on a monthly basis. &amp;nbsp;More formal than a mere networking event, but less formal than a luncheon, SIGs meetings may offer a speaker, small group problem solving on a member issue, work project discussions, or trading resources. &amp;nbsp;If you are currently an independent coach with an interest in business/leadership development, or a training/OD professional looking to use coaching in your organization, our Coaching in Organizations SIG can be your peer advisory group on developing your skills and implementing new ideas.
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;br&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;b&gt;Pre-registration&lt;/b&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    Please pre-register at least 2 days before the event.
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;b&gt;What is required to attend?&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  This is a free member-only event and current ASTD San Diego membership is required.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  Pre-registration is also required to meet the security needs of our host location. &amp;nbsp;

      <title>Independent Consultants SIG (Tue, June 19, 2012)</title>
      <description>&lt;h3 class="contStyleExcHeadingColored"&gt;Are you an independent service provider?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Are you tired of attending events – expecting they’ll be informative – only to leave feeling like you were at a sales meeting?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Would you like to meet and share ideas with other business owners?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The Independent Consultants’ SIG is a free, members-only benefit that’s specifically intended to help you grow your business.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
If you’re self-employed (or considering it), then this group might be for you.&lt;br&gt;
We’ll be talking about things like …&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Marketing&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Networking&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Business systems and processes&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Who your clients are and where you can find them&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;How to find resources for everything from website development to accounting to getting unstuck to … you name it&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;What social networking is and how to use it effectively&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;More – based on what members want and need.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;
We meet every third Tuesday of the month from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;

      <title>Independent Consultants SIG (Tue, September 18, 2012)</title>
      <description>&lt;h3 class="contStyleExcHeadingColored"&gt;Are you an independent service provider?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Are you tired of attending events – expecting they’ll be informative – only to leave feeling like you were at a sales meeting?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Would you like to meet and share ideas with other business owners?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The Independent Consultants’ SIG is a free, members-only benefit that’s specifically intended to help you grow your business.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
If you’re self-employed (or considering it), then this group might be for you.&lt;br&gt;
We’ll be talking about things like …&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Marketing&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Networking&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Business systems and processes&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Who your clients are and where you can find them&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;How to find resources for everything from website development to accounting to getting unstuck to … you name it&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;What social networking is and how to use it effectively&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;More – based on what members want and need.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;
We meet every third Tuesday of the month from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This event is for members only, and pre-registration is &lt;b&gt;required&lt;/b&gt;.
