MARCH ROUNDTABLE
The March Roundtable Breakfast will feature an exciting speaker from the international arena! Adair Linn Nagata, PhD, is Professor of Intercultural Communication at the Rikkyo University Graduate School of Intercultural Communication in Tokyo.
THANKS TO KATHY VAUGHAN who spoke in February on her experiences in Kenya. I’m hoping Alan Gross will do a brief summary of Kathy’s presentation when he returns from a trip out of town. But in the meantime, we wanted to let you know about Adair Nagata’s upcoming presentation!
MORE ABOUT MARCH ROUNDTABLE
Adair is currently researching non-verbal cuing in order to develop ways to help those who work with survivors of Domestic Violence to communicate more effectively and compassionately. This work, with two other colleagues Drs. Kiyoko Sueda and Junko Saruhashi, is being funded by a Japanese government grant.
She focuses on the process of attending to all aspects of the bodymind―body, emotions, mind, and spirit―in order to grasp the holistic personal meaning of an internal event and to use that understanding to communicate skillfully with diverse people in the moment.
Adair has lived in Japan since 1970 working in international education, corporate human resources (training and development, communication, and organizational development), and university teaching.
We begin to convene at 8:00 AM and promise to end the formal program at 9:30 AM, although speakers generally are able to stay for informal conversations until about 10:00 AM. The breakfast is in Room 610 at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, 899 Tenth Avenue (59th Street - take any subway to Columbus Circle and walk west).
There is no charge for the breakfast but we do ask you to let us know by return email if you plan to attend, so we have enough food!
