Navigating the transition into full-time work, as an adult is something most were never taught in school.
Aside from general expectations such as promptness, liability, and meeting job qualifications, there are issues, rarely addressed in the workplace, that play an important role in one’s quality of work life. Diverse habits, levels of emotional wellness, racial and cultural differences, for example, also impact the collective work experience
Over 20 student interns from six Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are currently enrolled in an 8-week virtual course in emotional intelligence, accountability, and growth mindset, designed to prepare for their entry into the workforce.
The Lenserf Group’s pioneering “Exceed Your Potential Academy” launched last week in Philadelphia. The innovative, employer-sponsored training program is designed to help students to navigate the challenges of cultural, geographic, and other changes that could impact their performance, wellness, and ability to build relationships during their internships. Topics covered include time management, building confidence, setting priorities, and overcoming procrastination.
The curriculum is facilitated by a diverse group of coaches across North America and Africa who deliver a tech-enabled, multimodal learning experience in a psychologically safe environment.
“Feedback from employees who have completed our programs highlights significant improvements in managing conflict and stress. This heightened awareness not only enhances their quality of work and consistency but also fosters greater engagement,” says Farnia Fresnel, President of The Lenserf Group. “Introducing these students to such training at this juncture is exceptionally beneficial.”
For over a decade, The Lenserf Group has been dedicated to aiding leaders and teams in cultivating mindsets centered around transformation and ownership. With its latest initiative, the organization continues its commitment to fostering a pipeline of emotionally intelligent, diverse emerging leaders.
Established in 2013, The Lenserf Group (TLG) is a certified woman and minority-owned leadership development, coaching, and consulting firm focused on elevating client performance.
