DEI Immersion
Learning and Development Experiences
While DEI training can be a practical starting point to encourage changes in perspectives and provide knowledge to level-set around DEI concepts, we strongly believe in curating experiences that encourage opportunities for deepened understanding and application of DEIB concepts and best practices. By creating brave spaces for uncomfortable conversations, we create custom solutions for organizations of varying sizes and industries, incorporating a mix of education, microlearning activities, breakout sessions, guided critical reflection exercises, and action-planning tools to equip participants with the knowledge, strategies, and tools needed to lead and operate more inclusively.
A list of learning topics is attached here, while not exhaustive as we always welcome the opportunity to custom-create content to meet the needs of our clients.
Executive Coaching
There is rising evidence that DEI coaching is highly effective in corporate settings. Applying diversity, equity, and inclusion to organizational strategies and initiatives can transform well-meaning efforts into sustainable change.
Inclusive leaders are expected to interact effectively with people from different races, religions, ages, gender, sexual orientation, and educational background. Operating with a lens of equity requires understanding the needs of people who are oppressed and marginalized.
Understanding how all people can feel a sense of belonging and interact productively can be a tremendous undertaking. It takes a vision, the knowledge base, and skill set – this what you learn in the well-designed coaching program, exposing you to real-world situations that teach you how to influence and transform spaces into inclusive environments.
We want to partner with you to lead inclusively at the highest level through our DEI Management and Executive Leadership Coaching opportunities focused on theory, strategy and practice. Let us develop a customized DEI Coaching Engagement Plan for you or a small group of leaders in your organization.
