“Who Am I?” with Dr. Jeffrey Ickes at Augusta Metro Chamber Third Thursday Business Builder

Staff Report

Friday, July 8th, 2022

Are you the same person at work as you are at home?  In which setting are you more stressed?  In which setting are you more self-actualized?  When, where, and with whom are you your most authentic and highest self? When, where and with whom are you your most defensive self? Join the Augusta Metro Chamber and Troy University on July 21 for Third Thursday Business Builder with Dr. Jeffrey Ickes to learn more about the ultimate existential question, "Who am I?”  

As a part of the Chamber’s Third Thursday Business Builder series, this talk "Actualizing YourSELF Inside and Outside the Workplace" will focus on how to actualize your potential across both settings by discovering and unlocking your inner spirit.  Tips will also be provided for learning how to recognize, honor and appreciate different spirit-types (at work and at home) and how to help others actualize their own potentialities. 

Dr. Jeffrey Ickes has been a professor in psychology and counseling for over 40 years and currently is a Professor at Troy University.  He is interested in bridging the gap between applied psychology and religion through teaching people spirit-based skills that will raise their self-esteem, enhance their relations, make them more productive, and ultimately create authentic happiness in life.  He has recently published a book called “The Fruit Code:  The Spiritual Shortcut to Loving your SELF and Others” and expects to publish a second book “Self-less actualization:  Transcending our own needs.”  

Third Thursday Business Builder begins at 11:30 am in the Chamber Conference Room located inside the Augusta Riverfront Center (One Tenth St. Suite 120, Augusta, Ga 30901).  Attendance is complimentary for Chamber members and $15 for prospective members with lunch provided.  Advanced registration is required at augustametrochamber.com. Registration deadline is Monday, July 18.  Due to limited space, please limit to one (1) representative from each company.
