Event Details: |
Language has an incredible way of influencing and shaping culture, people, and politics in our organizations. In the wake of the national attention the Anti-Racist movement is receiving, how you communicate your organization's mission and volunteer work is absolutely critical. But, even more poignant, is how you engage with — and communicate with — people individually. What influence do you have in communicating these messages with donors, volunteers, clients, board members? What questions can you ask to influence change in your organization? This session, will consider how to insert provocations to move your organization toward supporting their anti-racist statements with tangible action. The path towards true justice and equity is ongoing, and it can begin with asking questions and practicing inclusive storytelling. Those are the two ideas that will frame the conversation we are going to have for this session.

People are promoted for performing at a high level in their organization, contributing to the mission and visions,
and exceeding the expectations of their leadership team and stakeholders.
However, what got you to the promotion may not be the thing that sustains or
propels you in the new role. You now need to employ new knowledge, skills, and
abilities to excel in your new role with new responsibilities and accountabilities.
This session will give you the tools and insight you need to step into your new
role with the confidence you need to be successful.
