Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

  1. Weave: The Social Fabric Project

In any social setting, we carry our histories and multiple social identities. Those are often subconscious. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives at work has helped us become more aware of our own identities and value those of coworkers. These tools can also help us support our communities. In this one-hour virtual gathering, we’ll discuss what it looks like to bring DEI awareness into our local work, so everyone feels welcome and that they belong. We’ll hear from those using DEI to connect their neighborhoods about how to do this work. Weave’s Executive Director Frederick J. Riley will host the hour with Dr. Arvenita Cherry of Maximus, a leading provider of health and human services.

Wednesday, September 21 at 3:00 pm Eastern Time (2:00 pm Central Time, 1:00 pm Mountain Time, 12:00 pm Pacific Time)

Free and virtual on Zoom.
