SUMMARY:Culture/Ethnicity\, Women\, Age in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:Resmaa Menachem says that culture is the way our bodies re-enact history through the foods we eat\, the stories we tell\, and the images that move us.  But how does that impact how we show up in the workplace? \nThere are a record 5 generations in the workforce. Yet our society and employers seem to value only the younger ones. Research has shown that youth focus to be short-sighted when it comes to achieving superior organizational performance. \nResearch by McKinsey and others has shown that organizations that truly engage women at all levels outperform those organizations that do not. And despite claims to the contrary\, research also shows that truly and equitably engaging women equitably is not happening in the US. \nLearning Outcomes \nBy the end this workshop you will be able to: \n\nidentify the 9 components of culture\nidentify the 4 components of gender\nrecognize the challenges different genders face in the workplace\ninteract positively with people of different genders\nidentify the 5 generations in the workforce\nrecognize the values of people of different ages face in the workplace interact positively with people of different ages\n\nThe link to the session will be sent in an email after you register.

SUMMARY:DEI 401: A Board's Impact on DEI
DESCRIPTION:The National Council of Nonprofits defines a Board’s responsibility being “to steer the organization towards a sustainable future by adopting sound\, ethical\, and legal governance and financial management policies\, as well as by making sure the nonprofit has adequate resources to advance its mission.” Research from McKinsey\, PWC\, and others show that organizations that have diversity in their leadership are more likely to outperform their peers.

SUMMARY:DEI 202: From De-Biasing to Allyship
DESCRIPTION:60% of women ages 18 to 29 report that they or a female family member have been sexually harassed. 51% of black Americans say they have personally experienced people using racial slurs against them. 35% of Asian Americans report personally experiencing people making insensitive or offensive comments or negative assumptions about their race or ethnicity. \nWhy is this happening? 100% of people are biased but most do not know it? Research has shown that it is this unconscious implicit bias that causes discrimination and the “isms” that exist in society. This highly interactive workshop will help you understand how to at minimum de-bias yourself so you have better interactions creating a more welcoming environment and even better become an ally so you can spark innovation leveraging beneficial perspectives that improve organizational performance. \nLearning Objectives \nBy the end of this session you will be able to: \n Understand implicit bias \n\nList techniques to de-bias yourself\nIdentify the different types of allyship\nDescribe practical strategies for being an effective ally.\n\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n\nSponsored by
