Free COVID-19 APADRC Online Chinese Personal Development Workshop Series
Fundamentally, we’re all human, which means that we are similar. For example, we all cry when we’re upset, smile when we’re happy, and eat when we feel hungry. Why then, do we sometimes have a hard time getting along?
Presented by the APADRC, “Success in America: the Invisible Rules” is a virtual weekly Chinese workshop series aimed towards helping you break through the “bamboo ceiling” to achieve greater success in the United States. This is a free multi-part self-development program that seeks to illuminate some of the unspoken behavioral expectations that cause cultures to clash.
If you’ve ever felt like you always seem to be an outsider no matter how hard you try to fit in, this workshop series is for you. RSVP below and prepare yourself for greater chances of success, regardless of whether that’s a higher salary, more popularity, recognition in the workplace, or more amicable personal relations.

Join us on Monday for the first installment of our series: “Success in America: the Invisible Rules”

Words matter. They formulate our thoughts and allow us to verbalize our ideas. More significantly, words dictate intention, which permeates our actions. Words we see, speak, and hear have the ability to influence every part of our lives including both how we interact with others, as well as how others view us. Join us in this workshop and learn to be intentional, authentic, and present in your relationships! Become that relatable teammate who is always one step ahead!
言语对我们来说至关重要。其有形化了我们的思想，使我们能够用语言表达我们的想法。更重要的是，语言支配着意图，而意图渗透在我们的一举一动中。我们所看到、说到、听到的话语影响着生活的每一部分，包括我们如何与他人互动，以及他人如何看待我们。加入我们第八讲的公益讲座，学习如何在你的人际关系中呈现出更有意、真实的一面! 成为那个总是领先一步、值得信赖的队友!
