A joint meeting of the Massachusetts Municipal Management Association and Massachusetts Municipal Human Resources on April 14 in Worcester will feature a keynote presentation about the impact of birth order on management style and interpersonal relationships.
Human relations and management expert Jack Agati will lead an entertaining and informative session, “Birth Order: What’s It Got to Do With Business, Anyway?” Agati will explore the impact that a person’s place in the family has on styles of managing and dealing with people.
Attendees will learn how to avoid potential interpersonal conflicts, while tapping into a person’s strengths as developed through the birth order process.
The meeting will also feature a panel discussion focused on civility in city and town halls. Panelists will include Bridgewater Town Manager Michael Dutton, Acton Human Resources Director Marianne Fleckner, and Norfolk Town Administrator Blythe Robinson. Randolph Town Councillor Katrina Huff-Larmond, founder of Huff, Larmond and Associates, will moderate the session.
