I - CARE
Relationship Management
People construct their
self-identity based on
the quality and type of
relationships they have
with others. The
effective development
and management of
positive relationships
is highly correlated
with accelerated
learning, goal
achievement and overall
"success" in life.
Cultural challenges
experienced by a high
percentage of ISU
students are such that
the many of the
requisite skills
required to foster and
manage effective
relationships need to be
groomed. Through
modeling the behavior of
others, especially
faculty and staff
members, students can
improve their own
interpersonal
relationship management
skills while benefiting
from their own
experience of positive
relationships.
This component of
training will focus on
techniques to establish
and maintain close yet
professional
relationships with
students, peers and
other constituents.
Focus will be on the
skills of developing
rapport, trust, empathy,
positive regard, and
effective communication,
while understanding the
personal development
that can occur in the
lives of others if we
are effective in our
management of
relationships with them.
