PDA Event: Changing the Lens: A Fresh Look at Ending Workplace Racism and Hostility in the Workplace

We are in the midst of what some may call a "Great Awakening" concerning the importance and fundamental value of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion. Our due diligence has produced some genuine empathy, which, hopefully, has us on a fast track toward internal, interpersonal, systemic, and institutional transformation. We are evolving in our relationship with social justice and racial equity and our desire to mitigate our biases to create a professional atmosphere that is welcoming for all. We are finding our voices in this broader conversation, but we know voice alone is not going to help change anything. So, let's consider what may be next, explore what we ourselves can do, and how our small efforts could have rippling effects for generations.

Presenter:

Suzanne Haley inspires soul care and human solidarity through compassionate truth-sharing, awakening empathy, and activating courageous citizenship. She is the Founder & CEO of S.
