Modules
Two-Day Launch Immersion:
These initial steps are designed to fast-track your flourishing leadership journey, setting you on a path to impact and authentic leadership.
Day 1: Becoming a Powerful Changemaker (October 19) SHRM: 6 PDC
One of the biggest mistakes people who want to create change make, is they burn out and they get tired and they get tired because they are trying to push and force change to happen. They don't realize they are dealing with an issue where there's so much cynicism and non-possibility and disappointment and creating change can be productive rather than futile. In this module, you learn to address this from the very beginning.
Learn key mindset shifts for emotional intelligence and how they relate to creating positive change in your community. This module will help you stop pushing against resistance and instead increase your effectiveness and leverage as a leader.
Day 2: Embracing Diversity (October 20) SHRM: 6 PDC
What really amplifies our equity impact is having an understanding of our own filters. The journey of equity is one of self discovery and knowing ourselves in service to deeply understanding others.
What often happens is we are looking outside for people to change when the real change starts with us. Embracing diversity begins with embracing yourself. And the most powerful step is noticing and being aware of your own reactions in response to others.
