The need for leaders across sectors\, and especially within the social sector\, to understand and engage the current environment is essential in building an equitable society for all. \nThis journey begins by ensuring all people feel valued at work. It mandates the co-creation of an inclusive workforce that can foster the development of a healthy\, productive\, and peaceful society in which all people can participate and reach their full potential. The journey continues with building a culture that supports equity for long-term sustainable change and engaging the inequitable systems\, which marginalizes\, disconnects\, and dismisses individuals from having access and full participation in reaching economic mobility and prosperity. \nDuring this three-part virtual workshop presented by Social Current\, participants will explore their relationships with equity\, diversity\, and inclusion (EDI) in a safe environment and make progress on developing an EDI action plan for their organizations. \nBecause advancing EDI requires more than just basic knowledge and the will to improve\, presenters will help participants understand their own biases and the role of historical discrimination\, non-inclusive behavioral actions\, and culture in creating an unjust society. \nThe workshop will include presentations of valuable information\, facilitated discussions\, reflection opportunities\, and dedicated planning time. In addition to learning about core concepts\, participants will put ideas into action with facilitated planning time. Everyone will begin developing action plans for their organizations or build on existing plans. Organizations are encouraged to send multiple employees to build or work on current EDI plans for advancement. \nAbout the Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®)\nTo be equipped to advance equity within your community\, organization\, and beyond\, it is essential to also understand and advance your personal journey. Enhance your participation in this workshop with the Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®)\, which provides valuable and actionable information about your own mindset/skillset toward cultural difference and commonality. The IDI®\, a 50-item online questionnaire\, has been developed and tested using rigorous cross-culturally validated psychometric protocols with over 220\,000 respondents from a wide range of cultural groups and countries. \nAdd this assessment to your workshop registration to receive practical and in-depth information. Individuals will receive a customized IDI® Individual Profile Report and participate in a 60-minute one-on-one debrief session with Social Current Director of Evaluation and Research Phyllis Richards to discuss their results and develop a plan to meet their personal intercultural development goals. Richards is a qualified administrator of the IDI® and has more than a decade of experience in working collaboratively to address systemic racism and improve cultural competency. \nWorkshop Goals\n\nHow EDI has changed over time within the U.S. as a result of legislation\nUnderstand the skills needed to advance your EDI personal journey\nHow biases\, racism\, and incivility are barriers to building an EDI-enriched workplace culture\nUnderstand their organization’s phase of EDI maturity\, and how to move to the next phase\nA multi-faceted approach for co-creating an organizational culture that fosters EDI\nOptions for addressing critical current issues\nHow to structure an organizational plan to advance EDI using results-based strategies\nCreate the skeleton plan with facilitator support\n\nWho Should Participate\n\nStaff responsible for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion\nHuman resources professionals\nOrganizational development professionals\nExecutives\nBoard members\nExecutive search firms\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n Presenters\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Undraye Howard\, PhD\n \n Senior Director and Special Advisor to the CEO for Equity\, Diversity\, Inclusion and Engagement\nSocial Current \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Jerica Broeckling\, M.A.\n \n Engagement Partner \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Sheryl White\, PhD\n \n Vice President of Training and Organizational Development \nNeighborhood House Association \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Phyllis Richards\, M.A.\, M.S.\n \n Director of Equity\, Diversity\, Inclusion and Research\nSocial Current URL:https://www.social-current.org/event/advancing-edi-for-a-more-perfect-union-march-session/ CATEGORIES:Training ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.social-current.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/EDI-Prefect-Union-Alt-Image-March.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
