There are two important concepts that make the workplace sphere go round: emotional intelligence (EQ) and giving back to the upcoming generations to ensure their success in our footsteps. But how can you lead those younger than you and embed emotional intelligence to create a safe, thriving environment?
Khristian Jones will teach you how. As the Co-Founder of the Patti Grace Smith Fellowship and an Interiors Engineer at United Airlines, she’s passionate about diversifying the aerospace industry and opening space for all people. Through the fellowship, she leads and guides students in the aerospace field to ensure they have the most stress-free, successful career pathways from entering post-secondary, to graduating, to entering the field.
