Executive skills are underlying brain processes that help people manage their everyday lives, get things done, control their emotions, and help them manage obstacles that interfere with productivity and behavior change. Many adults with executive skill challenges struggle to finish college, hold down a job, progress in their career, or maintain satisfactory relationships with friends and family. Failure and the recognition that they are working well below their potential erode self-confidence, eat away at self-esteem.
This 1-hour webinar will introduce the “Smart but Scattered” model of executive skills and will offer viewers three approaches to helping adults manage their executive skill challenges. These are: 1) modify the environment to reduce the impact of the weak executive skill; 2) teach the skill by targeting specific problem situations; and 3) help adults identify incentives that motivate them to practice skills that are hard for them.
