Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Name It, Aim It, and Claim It!

The trouble started on the first day of employment! During Orientation, HR encouraged us to bring our “whole selves” to work! What were they thinking?! We obliged by showing up our talents, but also our disparate worldviews, life-histories, beliefs, and individual cultures. In theory, we should all get along for the benefit of our residents, right? Precious few organizations provide education or training that teaches how to unite around issues that divide the world outside of our buildings. Every measure of our success hinges on our ability to cherish and honor EVERY team member.

DEI: Name It, Aim It, and Claim It! is your golden ticket to the worries, wounds, and countless wins of a Healthcare Executive, 20-year Chief Learning Officer, and nationally successful DEI Practitioner. Here are just a few of the critical questions this experience addresses:

• Do DEI committees work, who should lead them, and how to decide on realistic goals?
• What processes create safe and honest spaces for tough conversations and conflicts?
• How can you identify and remediate the cultural blind spots that threaten your effectiveness?
• How can you increase your courage and inspire accountability from others who aren’t committed to DEI principles?

Together, we will problem-solve and identify organizational policies, traditions, and the unwritten rules that sabotages DEI success. What could be more fulfilling than creating the workplace culture that aligns with the mission, vision, and values? Isn’t that the “New Normal” our residents deserve? Wear comfortable clothes. We’ve got some stretching to do!
