March 23, 9:00 AM: Authentic Diversity: How to Build an Inclusive Workplace with Michelle Silverthorn

Our world has changed. The moment is here for real progress on diversity and inclusion, to take the transformed workplace and the transformed globe and create a new paradigm for equity and justice. The calls are loud. Are you ready to answer them?

Join Michelle Silverthorn in an engaging, interactive virtual program that will shift your understanding on the challenges for inclusion in the workplace, and take up her call to action for every individual to build spaces of authentic diversity for all.

During the program, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of:

  • The central role unconscious bias and its attendant challenges, microaggressions, and stereotypes, play in interrupting our journey to inclusion.
  • 10 rules to make inclusion a reality for everyone in an organization.
  • How to design spaces of authenticity and belonging, where everyone is welcome to rise, thrive, and succeed.

This program is open to legal professionals at TCDIP Member Organizations. TCDIP will apply for CLE credit in Minnesota. Register today!
