Click here to review the EBA Seminar & EBA Assessment session, purpose, outcomes and who should attend. You can copy these and edit or customize them before sharing them with your participants.
Option 1 Agenda:
If you are able to schedule a half-day session, you can use this format of delivering the seminar and pausing after each pillar for participants to complete the assessment for that pillar. You then review results and build a growth plan all in the same session.
