Microaggressionns, which are subtle, covert forms of discrimination, may impact your interactions with clients, co-workers, and contribute to detrimental impacts. Therefore, during this interactive presentation, participants will learn practical strategies to help identify microaggressions and build techniques to improve workplace culture.

Utilizing evidenced-based research, this interactive workshop will help participants gain skills to enhance their understanding of racial justice, while also assisting individuals to become a more effective ally around issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Diversity and inclusion are top priorities for organization leaders. However, these topics can be hard to discuss, and sustainable change can be difficult to facilitate. Therefore, using an evidenced-based approach, the Real Conversations With Impact (RCWI) Experience was created to provide a safe space to host challenging conversations, explore intense emotions, and educate participants on how to strive towards being anti-racist. Being anti-racist means we are actively identifying and eliminating racism by changing systems, organizational structures, policies, practices, and attitudes. Through engaging in intentional action, participating in tough conversations, gaining knowledge, and interrupting biases we can all walk on this journey together.

To effectively address racism in the workplace it is essential that leaders take an anti-racist approach to create a culture of inclusion for all. Being anti-racist means we are actively identifying and eliminating racism by changing systems, organizational structures,
policies, practices, and attitudes. During this interactive training experience, participants will gain the knowledge and tools needed to engage in intentional action to accelerate and sustain equitable work environments.
