Building effective working relationships focus of upcoming presentations Published June 24, 2016 By Civilian Training Office TINKER AIR FORCE BASE, Okla. -- Tinker Air Force Base will host free presentations of "Professionalism -- Enhancing Human Capital" from the Profession of Arms Center of Excellence Aug. 9-11 in the Tinker Auditorium. The presentations are scheduled from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each day and are open to everyone on base. As part of PACE's Character and Leadership initiative, "Professionalism -- Enhancing Human Capital" examines how professionalism drives individual behavior and is the bridge that connects the Air Force core values to the Air Force mission. From the presentation description: Effective communication is not just about how to talk or present a brief. Effective communication as taught in this presentation is about building effective relationships that result in increased loyalty and trust. It is from the basis of trust that people can influence others and then shape the commitment to our Air Force core values. This presentation examines the psychology of trust, authority and influence. By better understanding these principles of the human condition, people can better build healthy relationships that provide an opportunity for positive influence. Though targeted at effective working relationships within the Air Force, attendees are able to extend the lessons to personal relationships, as well. PACE describes the feedback from this presentation as overwhelmingly positive, ranging from "Will make me a better leader, father and husband," to "I want to take the longer version," to "Inspirational -- this will change how I interact with people and how I raise my kids." Registration information will be provided via each organization's training manager. For more information, call Javier Solis, Civilian Training Office, at 739-7538.
