Reimagine Workplace Equity through Comics
In candid moments, leaders confess that their organizations aren't making progress quickly enough on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) goals. With all that teams are juggling, leaders feel uncertain as to how DEI discussions—squeezed into already-busy schedules—will lead to concrete change. Plus, it can be hard for “real talk” to occur when emotionally-charged topics give everyone reason to feel guarded.
In this innovative session, we’ll tap into creativity and the power of the arts to help participants:
Learn three hidden ways that organizations self-sabotage their DEI efforts.
Gain new frameworks for discussing emotionally-charged topics with colleagues and teams.
Develop personalized action steps that balance quick wins with long-term systemic solutions.
No artistic experience is necessary. Just bring a pen and blank paper, along with a desire to solve entrenched problems & a spirit of curiosity. The workshop is relevant across industries and job roles.
Let’s talk about how to bring this experience to your workplace or organization.
