Lead Presenter: Polly Clauson
Date: October 28, 2025    Time: 2:45 pm - 3:45 pm

Abstract: In the fast-paced world of academic advising, maintaining a positive mindset while navigating daily challenges is essential for long-term success and well-being. Fueling Positivity explores strategies to enhance motivation, reduce burnout, and foster continuous professional growth. Drawing from 'The Energy Bus' by Jon Gordon and 'Micromastery' by Robert Twigger, this session will provide advisors with practical tools to cultivate resilience, develop a mindset of continuous learning, and create a more fulfilling work environment. Participants will learn how to integrate positivity into their advising practice, leverage small skill-building techniques for professional development, and sustain their enthusiasm for student support. By the end of this session, advisors will be equipped with actionable strategies to enhance their work experience and contribute to a thriving, supportive advising community.
