Build Expertise through deliberate practice

• Once we have determined our path to expertise through a Behaviorally-Anchored Self Assessment (BASA), how do we implement that path?

• Build Expertise through Deliberate Practice:

Everyone has already engaged the activities leading to expertise. However, most of us, as adults, confine those techniques to a box in the attic labeled, Education. In this presentation, Steph Thompson will show a framework of deliberate practice allowing you easy, daily access to the strategies and techniques for building expertise.
