Identity, Diversity, and Equity in the Workplace Seminar Info Session

Humane leadership requires recognizing and incorporating the unique identities, backgrounds, and experiences everyone brings to their places of work. Values-based leaders know how to create spaces for everyone to bring their full selves to the workplace when building out and/or working with their teams, nurturing their success.

With a primary focus on racial equity, the Identity, Diversity, and Equity in the Workplace Seminar explores the contours of identity in ways that build more self-aware individuals and stronger and more effective teams. This virtual seminar will take place fall 2022. Dates are coming soon.
