About This Course

In this video podcast, Steven Pitucci, a practicing CPA from Toronto, Canada, speaks one-to-one with Kevin Lipiec on the very common human personality trait, “highly sensitive person” (HSP). This trait often gets misunderstood and often frowned upon as a hinderance to an employee’s performance in the organization. However, this is far from the truth. 

This podcast provides clarity over what a highly sensitive person is, how they can add a competitive advantage to your organization, and how you can identify and best manage the needs of highly sensitive people in the workplace environment. 

The eight topics discussed in this podcast include:

1)      What is a “highly sensitive person”?

2)      What are the traits of HSPs?

3)      How to best accommodate HSPs in the workplace

4)      Combatting traditional thoughts on HSPs advancing in the workplace

5)      Strengths and weaknesses that HSPs bring to the workplace

6)      Careers that HSPs thrive in professionally

7)      Practical things HSPs can do to take care of themselves

8)      Practical workplace scenario walkthroughs involving HSPs

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
