Title: From Stress to Success: Mastering Tact in Challenging Encounters 
Lead Presenter: Ericka Emiliani-Salois
Date: October 28, 2025    Time: 9:15 am - 10:15 am
Room: Milano Ballroom VI, Promenade Level
Abstract: Picture this: it's 4 PM on a Friday before a long weekend, when an email blasts into your inbox-URGENT, ALL CAPS, and dripping with the fervor of a thousand deadlines. The student demands immediate attention and a same-day resolution. What is your first instinct?

In this presentation, we'll explore the Stop, Think, & Respond approach- a method for transforming academic advising chaos into calm, collected conversations.

Join us to master the art of emotional intelligence and conflict resolution. We'll turn high-stress moments into opportunities for growth, equipping you with the skills needed to handle student issues like a pro. Learn how to swap knee-jerk reactions for thoughtful responses, and turn frazzled emotions into constructive solutions. Let's turn panic-driven moments into opportunities for student success.
