November is National Native American Heritage Month. All Augsburg community members are invited to a special lecture by Sam Robertson (Lakota). Sam's work focuses on Intergenerational Grief and Trauma among Dakota people of Minnesota and the Dakotas. His talk, "Intergenerational Grief and Native People" or "Visible in Our Society", will address this topic and particularly covert racism--the unseen racism of white privilege, the invisibility of Native peoples and the trauma or repression and colonialism over multiple generations

Sometimes, as supervisors, we tend to think of performance management as something we do when an employee is not performing well. While feedback is important then, its also important when things are going well. Giving feedback reinforces behavior that we want to see continued and helps the employee know how they are doing relative to the expectations we create. Receiving on-going feedback is how employees come to understand how they contribute to the organization and how they can continuously increase the value of that contribution.
