In an era of rapid technological advancements and evolving user expectations, libraries face the ongoing challenge of staying relevant and engaged with their communities.

<br>
Learning objectives for this session include:<br>
? Explain the design thinking process.<br>
? Apply the design thinking process to solve problems and issues.<br>
? Discussing the uses of design thinking in libraries.<br>

Hello folks,<br>
<br>
Do you have any experience with the following type of training?<br>
<br>
I came across LJ and SLJ Professional Dev courses and wanted to know of anyone has any experience with them. I'm evaluating if it's worth the time for an upcoming program that looks pretty useful. Thanks!<br>

Library Management Training<br>
<br>
Are you one of the many current or aspiring managers that didn't learn management skills in library school? We have the perfect training for you.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
This course will set you up for success in your future or existing management position by training you on the fundamentals of staff relationships and management, managing difficult conversations and staff feedback, crisis and incident management, budget management, and more. Built specifically for managers (or those on a future management track), this interactive course will give you the opportunity to role play challenging scenarios and get feedback from experts and peers.<br>
<br>
<br>
This 8-week intensive, virtual training is created to prepare library managers for the specific challenges you will face but were not trained for. Each live-session week will include training from an expert guest speaker, a facilitated discussion, and an interactive session to workshop new skills with peers. In the week between each live session meeting, you will have the opportunity to work on asynchronous prompts in peer cohort groups that will lead to a culminating portfolio of management resources. You will leave this course with a new cohort of peers and a Library Journal Management Training Certificate.<br>
