Take This Job and Love It!

Alan R. Zimmerman

The changing pressures of the 90’s and beyond show no sign of lessening. Almost everyone is besieged with multiple priorities. Never before has stress been more prevalent, burnout more likely, or balance more difficult. Even science has come to recognize these pressures as a major contributing factor in almost all illness.

Instead of feeling helpless, you can increase your energy and enthusiasm. You can balance the needs of your body, mind, and spirit. You can apply strategies that reduce work-related stress and solidify personal relationships.

Quite simply, you don’t have to go to work exhausted. You don’t have to go home from work exhausted. Join in this lively lunch presentation by Alan R. Zimmerman, president, Zimmerman Communi-Care Network—offering unique ways to “take this job and LOVE it.”

Well, these laws are basically good laws, and they are not going away. That means we must determine easier ways to comply with these two key pieces of legislation. In this presentation, Tom E. C. Smith, professor of special education, University of Arkansas at Little Rock will look at both of these laws from the perspective of doing what is right for children with disabilities, but doing so using a simple, common-sense approach. Let’s do it right, but let’s do it as simply as possible.
