UNMC will launch its fall sessions for the Learn@Lunch Series on Thursday, Sept. 10.

The fall session will focus on teambuilding and how employees can help build the desired team to achieve the vision and mission of the department, the unit and UNMC.

Learn how to impact team members and ensure that everyone is on the same playing field by turning negative team experiences into positive ones. Raise the bar on team expectations and boldly go where no team has gone before.
