About the Leadershop:

Stressed? Self-care is necessary in preventing burn-out. Therefore, rest and relaxation IS productive. Join us as we resist hustle-culture in order to show up as our best selves!

Ice-Breaker: Are you a talker or a listener?

Although I’d argue both, I’d say I’m much more of a talker! I’m used to giving advice to my friends and providing comfort through words. However, I’ve learned that some people don’t appreciate this style of communication, and would prefer me to listen more. I hope to improve my listening skills more!

The Leadershops series consists of 1 hour workshops that focus on various student centered leadership-related topics facilitated by Campus Life staff and Leadership Peer Facilitators. This program aims to contribute to the leadership development and ongoing learning of UMBC undergraduate students.
