Lost in Translation? How to Communicate and Relate Leveraging Your Social Style.
About this Event
In managing projects and advancing career opportunities, it’s the people that make the difference in the outcome for success. For any team, the fundamental issues always boil down to effective communication. Our style of interaction determines behavior patterns that reflect our identity – how we make decisions, resolve problems and achieve great outcomes. This workshop is a highly engaging and compelling framework of the four Social Styles that will help create awareness about your own pattern of communicating and give you tools to understand how to communicate effectively with other people’s Social Styles.
Attendees receive a simple assessment that will take 5 minutes to complete. Then, Emily facilitates an engaging interactive workshop that will get you thinking differently about how to work well with others, whether they be colleagues, clients, teammates, and even your friends and family.
Meet Our Featured Mentor: Emily Ransone
Emily Ransone is the co-owner of SideMark, an office furniture dealer in the San Francisco Bay Area. Founded in 1984 with the motto “We make work feel good”, SideMark’s philosophy is centered on the human experience of thriving in one’s work habitat to support the organization’s culture, thereby driving results. She is now helping other business leaders find success by helping them implement Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS) into their businesses. EOS ® is a simple, effective framework and set of tools that give business leaders alignment toward the vision, executing to that common vision with discipline and accountability. The outcome is a healthy team that clearly knows where they are going, how to get there and having the ultimate accountability delivering results.
As a self-proclaimed “Growth Junkie”, Emily makes use of workshops, books, blogs, podcasts and other resources in order to be her best self. Her focus is not only on improving her own life, but also the lives of the people with whom she connects on a daily basis, both in and outside of the office.
Emily firmly believes we can make a difference in our communities each day, and she strives to do such. A sought-after speaker and facilitator, she has supported a variety of nonprofit and professional organizations, tackling topics such as “Thanks for the Feedback: How to Handle Challenging Conversations” and “Social Styles: Communicating with Emotional Intelligence.”
Since 2015, Emily and her two SideMark partners have been experimenting with new business models for the furniture industry. The first was Swivelfly, a service that provides modern furniture to companies on a monthly subscription basis. Most recently, they have started Magnus, another Bay Area company modeled after the direct-to-consumer industry, supplying furniture at a 30% savings.
Emily is currently on the board of directors for Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley, an organization dedicated to repairing homes and revitalizing communities, as well as the Northern California Chapter of CoreNet Global, advancing the commercial real estate industry. She also volunteers her time as a business mentor through The Mentoring Club. Emily holds a Bachelor of Science in Public Relations from the University of Oklahoma.

Online Event Information
As we receive registrations to this event, we will collect email addresses of attendees. As the event date gets closer, we will be sending out the Zoom link for the event via email. Along with this information, we will send out a guide on how to gain the most out of the session.
We are aiming to give attendees the ability to chat with each other just like you would in an onsite networking event. We plan to keep the first 20 minutes of the event to online moderated networking.
To make the networking event even more interesting, we are imagining now that the event is scheduled online, we could have the presence of attendees from many parts of the world. This should add some fun and interesting aspects of interactions to all of us participating in the event.
Regarding Coronavirus COVID-19
The Mentoring Club is monitoring guidance about the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic on a daily basis.
With the declarations of lockdown in many parts of the world including the Bay Area/Silicon Valley where we are based out of and originally planned on conducting this event, we are moving this onsite event to completely online.
We support the lockdown response to the crisis geared towards flattening the Coronavirus COVID-19 curve (slowing the spread of the virus) and helping our healthcare workers and systems manage their services and prevent them from experiencing enormous stress and potential collapse.
We encourage everyone to exercise the following personal protective protocol to ensure that we limit our exposure and risk to the virus: practice social distancing, eat healthy foods and supplements, get restorative sleep, and find creative ways to exercise indoors and follow your specific location’s official directives for exercising outdoors. We hope everyone stays calm and informed. Avoid panic, and most of all, enjoy the journey of learning despite the challenges of COVD-19.
