VIRTUAL | DEIB with Dr. Rebecca Baumgartner | Meeting the Whole Person at Work: Discover Paths to Take Action in a Trauma-Informed Workplace
When we feel "belongingness," we experience not only connection and acceptance, but we feel that we are part of something bigger than ourselves. The DEIB: It Begins With Us series provides concepts of belonging and othering, focusing on how we can foster more diverse and inclusive spaces for ourselves, our workplaces, and our communities.
At each session, Dr. Rebecca Baumgartner will present on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB), alternating fireside chats with interactive workshops. Although we encourage you to come each session, you can start at any time.
Join us every-other month to...
-
Begin the internal work of belonging and self-acceptance
-
Learn and implement inclusive leadership skills at home and at work
-
Identify the impacts of socialization on stereotypes and bias and ways to mitigate these
