Catalyst Magazine
Lea Berman, MA, is an expert on the subject of civility and co-author of “Treating People Well: The Extraordinary Power of Civility at Work and in Life.” She says being civil is not only the right thing to do, it also carries many side benefits.

“Whether you are at the White House or having a little business party, being a person who walks up to someone else and makes eye contact and shakes their hand and introduces themselves, and makes an effort, it’s a way to make everyone feel welcome.”

— Lea Berman, former White House social secretary, discussing civility at Core Values Speaker Series

As part of its educational experience, for students, staff, and faculty alike, UMB prides itself on bringing in interesting people to share their views on a wide array of topics.
