WEBINAR:
Exploring Paradoxes & Challenges of Inclusion
October 4, 2023 - 11:30 am-1:00 pm (US Eastern)
Your Presenter:
Bernardo M. Ferdman, Ph.D., Principal & Founder at Ferdman Consulting
What makes diversity and inclusion—seemingly so simple—also so complicated and difficult to achieve? Truly bringing inclusion to life can sometimes feel quite challenging, especially when there seem to be forces pulling in many directions, and various inherent dilemmas involved in working with and across differences. In this session, we will explore three key paradoxes or challenges of inclusion—those involving self-expression and identity, boundaries and norms, and safety and comfort—and consider their implications for engaging and building collective capacity for DEI.
