Webinar - The Art of Facilitating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Dialogues

Description:

Diversity, equity, and inclusion dialogue is a form of improvisational art. Every dialogue is unique, built upon the individual contributions and experiences of the people brought together in that moment. Yet there are foundational principles and practices that facilitators must practice to accomplish positive outcomes. This session will provide tips and tools for effectively facilitating DEI dialogues to ensure honest, heartfelt conversations and commitment to lasting behavior change.

Applications
