Shared norms for conversations about DEI can be the difference between silence and life-changing growth.
Inclusion requires people with tools to hold conversations about topics that they might be afraid to talk about - from the experience of exclusion to how power dynamics affect the ability to speak up.
By setting shared norms for these conversations, we can add a crucial skill to the workforce that reinforces psychological safety and enables individuals to relate to one another at work.

Why Do We Need Shared Norms for Challenging Conversations?
We know people are affected by racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia and more. Do we ignore the harm when it impacts us at work, or do we develop a strategy to address them, meaningfully? How do you introduce challenging topics? How do you make sure people aren’t alienated and then decide not to participate?
Review of elements that can be charged to discuss at work, acknowledging the effects of experience of microaggressions, harassment, and other harms.
