October 2026 Membership Meeting (Tuesday, October 27, 2026)

Tue, 27 Oct 2026 16:30:00 GMT

Everyone has at least one person in their life who gets under their skin. You dread their name appearing on your phone or your inbox. You can’t put your finger on why, but that person is such an "Officehole." Conflict and communication issues in the workplace often stem from one of three personality traits – your stress tolerance, your sensitivity, and your need for structure. Help identify which one is causing your friction and how to be the winner who gets things back on track.
