Webinar: FLOURISH Information Session
Webinar: FLOURISH Information Session
September 17 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
FLOURISH is an eight-week virtual program that will develop the skills required for 2SLGBTQIA+ Employee Resource Group (ERG)* leaders to be effective and successful in their roles. Those who lead 2SLGBTQIA+ ERGs have an enormous opportunity to create change for Two-Spirit, queer and trans employees. They also face very specific challenges in Canadian workplaces. While session content will touch on the mechanics of ERGs, the primary focus of FLOURISH will be developing individual competency in four areas:
- From Policy to Practice – Living Our Rights, Honoring Our Identities
- Telling the Story/Impact of Your ERG
- Navigating Polarization
- Principles of Peer Support
Through live Zoom sessions, virtual learning modules and self-directed work, our FLOURISH program will collectively unlock their potential as ERG leaders.
