Professional development reading group heads into second year

Looking for a way to develop professionally? Then join this group of AUM employees and read some of the best books available on professional development.

The AUM Staff Council Development Committee started the Professional Development Reading Group in 2008. The group reads and discusses some of today’s most thought-provoking books on personal and professional development.

"Reading groups are an easy way to continue the learning process and promote self improvement," said Debbie Tomblin, research compliance manager in the Office of Sponsored Programs and facilitator of the group.

The group will meet three times this term:

Date Time Location Reading selection
Wednesday, Nov. 4 Noon - 1 p.m. Goodwyn 112 Good to Great by Jim Collins
Wednesday, Nov. 18 Noon - 1 p.m. Goodwyn 112 Brain Rules by John Medina
Wednesday, Dec. 16 Noon - 1 p.m. TBA A New Earth by Eckert Tolle

Each member of the group is responsible for obtaining their own copies of each reading selection.

To make reading suggestions or for more information, e-mail Debbie Tomblin in or call 244-3250.
