DEI Workshops for Managers and Supervisors
Individuals who supervise full-time staff are invited to participate in a three-part workshop series focused on understanding the role that identity (race, class, gender, ability, sexual orientation, religion, etc.) plays in the workplace.
This series is designed to help managers and supervisors recognize dynamics in the workplace that can negatively impact employees’ sense of belonging, how to supervise and support employees in ways that are mindful of their identities, and ways to foster more equitable and inclusive interactions between employees in the workplace.
