D&I For Beginners: A Processing Group Series

This series is both educational (on the basic principles of D&I including microaggressions, implicit bias, communication, racial identity development, etc) and an opportunity to process one's own identity in relation to our role in D&I and the systems of privilege.

The group grew out of the realization that the three hour corporate D&I workshop I've been leading for years could easily be eight hours if we leaned into the experiential communication piece, and could then easily spin into 15 hours of personal identity development. It also grew out of a desire to build community around D&I.

So I’m starting a processing group to build community and welcome people who are new to this conversation. We will create a space safe for beginners to explore their assumptions, biases, and points of ignorance and provide the tools to safely and effectively engage in conversations around race and identity at work and home.
