Description
Since the horrific, public murder of George Floyd in the summer of 2020, companies and school districts nationwide have increased their awareness of systemic racism towards Black Americans, but have done very little since that unforgettable event to operationalize the DEI pledges, resolutions and marketing campaign promises made in 2020. Instead DEI practices have to be ingrained in the culture and practices of an organization or school to truly create positive, inclusive work environments.
In this episode, we are going to break down the steps to actually create psychologically safe and nurturing environments for teachers and leaders to show up unapologetically as their full selves and their “receipts” are valued.
