Is People Pleasing Getting in the Way of DEI Efforts at Your Organization?
A webinar by Sabine Marx, Brevity & Wit
Description:
Is people-pleasing getting in the way of your efforts to create an inclusive culture at your organization? Contrary to popular belief, inclusion doesn’t mean making everyone happy. It means leading with integrity and boundaries so that you can create an environment of psychological safety, where “clear is kind.” Your desire for approval, perfectionism and conflict avoidance might be undermining your diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts and inadvertently perpetuating a white supremacist culture.
Learning Outcomes:
