Of Interest to: Dentists Dental Hygienists Clinical Assistants Administrative Assistants Dental Technologists Clinicians at the 72nd Annual Winter Clinic 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Room 717A Chair: Dr. Bobby Greenbaum 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Room 711 Chair: Samta Chanana Kalman Green Toronto, Ontario LAUGHING MATTERS: HUMOUR IN THE WORK- PLACE Paulette Pillersdorf, DDS Unionville, Ontario Yoga Sutra for Dentistry About the Speaker Kalman Green is a professional facilitator and popular speaker whose programs have tickled and touched the lives of thousands of people in North America and overseas. Since 1986, Kalman has been leading seminars on a variety of topics that include leadership development, team-building, mentoring, performance management and personal effectiveness. Throughout his career, he has come to see humour as a delightful and powerful way to open doors, minds and hearts, especially in our overstressed and time-crunched workplace. He is a firm believer in taking his work seriously, but taking himself lightly as he helps people get more “smileage” out of their lives and jobs. About the program A recent survey of CEOs reported that more than 98% of them would rather hire somebody with a good sense of humour than someone without one. However, most people equate humour with joke-telling and the majority of people say they can’t tell a joke to save their lives. This session will explore numerous ways to invite laughter into your life without being a stand-up comic. You will be encouraged to develop your comic vision and use humour as a problem-solving tool to deal with demanding situations. You will develop a “smile file” that will help you improve communication, build relationships, provide perspective, reduce stress and replenish yourself when your tank is depleted. Through practical examples, sharing of the latest research on the health benefits of humour, actual workplace stories and fun exercises, you will create and take away dozens of ideas to include in your own humour first-aid kit. Join us and learn how humour ● Facilitates communication by providing a non-threatening medium ● Builds relationships and leads to a sense of staff cohesion in the workplace ● Reduces stress and makes us feel better ● Provides perspective especially in challenging or difficult situations ● Improves the bottom line of any business ● Commands attention ● Boosts your creativity and gives you the energy to think and laugh outside the box ● Helps you laugh with others and not at others so that humour is used as a tool and not a weapon ● Lightens up even the most stressful situations About the Speaker Dr. Paulette Pillersdorf graduated from the University of Toronto as a Dental Hygienist in 1974. She went on to complete her training in dentistry and received her DDS also from the University of Toronto in 1985. She has been teaching fitness since 1995 and has been certified by the American Council on Exercise (ACE). Dr. Pillersdorf has been a student of Yoga since 2000 and graduated from the Downward Dog Yoga Teachers Training Program in Toronto. Dr. Pillersdorf maintains a general dental practice in Unionville. About the Program Dental professionals are at great risk for repetitive strain injury from sustained postures that we assume every working day. The focus of this presentation will be to introduce participants to a few strategies to ‘undo’ the injuries that are perpetuated through incorrect or poor positioning. Correct breathing patterns will also be taught to help participants in dealing with the stressful environment commonly encountered in daily professional life. Relax, Enjoy and Learn ● Identify dysfunctional breathing patterns and learn relaxing abdominal and diaphragmatic techniques ● Identify and correct poor posturing ● Strengthen and increase flexibility in the spine, shoulder and upper extremities Who should attend this program Is dentistry a pain in the neck If you would like to enjoy what you do and be comfortable doing it, this workshop is for you. Whether you are a receptionist, assistant, hygienist, technician or dentist; whether you already are experiencing symptoms or wish to avoid future problems… spend an hour and relax with us. Note: Special clothing is not required. All stretches taught can easily be performed wearing normal attire. Who should attend this program This session is for anyone who wants to add a little more levity to their life and work. Everyone on a dental team will benefit from the many tips and techniques that will be covered, because after all, who doesn’t like to laugh! Note: Because of the interactive nature of this session, this program is limited to 60 participants and will be on a first come basis. w w w . t o r d e n t . c o m 41
