Seminary’s Morse speaks at free business seminar Jan. 24

How do our bodies “speak” even before we say a word? How do groups instinctively “size you up” and decide who influences them?

These and other questions will be addressed at the College of Business’ Winter Speaker Series Event, “The Interplay of Bodies and Influence in Leadership: A New Economics of Power,” featuring MaryKate Morse from our seminary. The presentation is scheduled from 7:30 to 9 a.m. Friday, Jan. 24, at the Portland Center. The presentation is free, and complimentary coffee and tea will be provided.

Morse has studied the relationship of our physical bodies to influence in leadership and is the author of the book Making Room for Leadership: Power, Space and Influence. Using the historical Jesus as a model, she proposes a new economics for the use of power in social settings.
