SUMMARY:National Member Webinar: Intersectionality in the Workplace: Broadening the Lens of Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, April 13\, 2022\, from 12 PM to 1 PM EDT – this event is exclusive for employees of our Proud Partners and Community Partners. \nFor Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DE&I) efforts to be truly impactful\, we all need to better understand and apply the concept of intersectionality to our workplaces. \nWhen some people face prejudice\, the targeted characteristics overlap. This makes the experiences of discrimination or oppression unique. For example\, a woman with autism an autistic woman\, a woman of colour or an older transgender person can face prejudice due to their overlapping social identities. What’s more\, how a woman of colour experiences gender discrimination is different from how a white woman will experience it. \nTherefore\, people leaders\, DE&I or HR leaders must make room for intersectionality within their DE&I or belonging practices. If you ignore intersectionality\, you’re overlooking the reality of your employees’ experiences at work and in communities. Join Elise Ahenkorah\, award-winning Inclusion Strategist and Speaker to learn thought-provoking and practical tips to build a workplace where everyone can thrive. \nThis interactive training is designed to better equip leaders and teammates with: \n\nUnderstanding what intersectionality is\nImportance of intersectionality to the workplace\, employee retention\, engagement and DE&I and belonging initiatives\nHow to embed intersectionality into your workplace culture\, systems\, DE&I initiatives\, and individual daily actions\nIdentifying resources to learn more\n\nAudience: \n\nAll employees of our Proud Partner and Community Partner organizations\nDiversity\, Equity & Inclusion professionals\nEmployee Resource Group members\n\nPresenter:\n[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″] Elise Ahenkorah (she/her)\, Inclusion Strategist and Speaker\, inclusion FACTOR \nElise Ahenkorah is an award-winning diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DE&I) strategist\, speaker\, and founder of #shemeets\, a women-of-colour entrepreneurship resource group.
