Events
Managing Teams in Times of Political Trauma (Grand Rapids)
Date and Time
Monday, March 16, 2015 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Description
Having a social justice approach means recognizing that conversations about diversity and appreciating social differences alone are not enough, In order to get a more comprehensive understanding we must also acknowledge the structural dynamics of unequal social power that result in some groups having privilege, status, and access that are denied to others. Bringing our full selves to work means acknowledging that our lives are also impacted by forces and systems that exist outside of the workplace in ways that take a toll on various marginalized communities. In this workshop, participants will begin to explore ways to be supportive of their colleagues who are tasked with fulfilling their work obligations while at the same time being well aware that their identities are under attack beyond the walls of the organization.
