Event Description:
Many Chamber businesses and organizations are asking what they can do to respond to systemic racism, workplace inequities, and exclusionary cultures in the current moment. Several Chamber
members have put out public statements regarding racism and issues of equity and inclusion but may not have all of the tools they need to challenge institutionalized forms of discrimination and inequality to build a better world.
To aid Chamber Members' desire to build greater diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in their respective workplaces, a group of experienced facilitators and consultants will be conducting a 6 part webinar series.
Session 2: Trauma-Informed, Mindful Leadership During Pandemics: The Challenge for C-Suite and HR in Visionary Organizations
Research supports that using a trauma-informed lens to support new and existing pathways to inclusion, mindful equity, and cultural competency is imperative, as we contemplate "pandemic upon pandemic" for our workforce and by extension, those neighbors, families, and communities impacted in the lives of our employees, teams, contractors, and vendors. Through an agreed-upon set of principles, values, and respectful dialogue around where our experiences both converge and diverge, this interactive workshop allows participants to develop a mindful trauma-informed framework for building inclusive, bias-free teams while recognizing the value of developing a growth (rather than fixed) mindset for equity that reduces stress, increases engagement, and sparks both creativity and innovation.
