D4: There’s No Wellbeing Without Belonging: Break Down Barriers to Inclusivity
Speakers | Makaylah Rogers, Fia-Lynn Crandall
This groundbreaking workshop courageously addresses barriers to inclusivity and belonging in the workplace, recognizing their profound impact on the well-being of those in marginalized groups. Be inspired with a fresh new approach to inclusion efforts that prioritize well-being for everyone.
In a space of non-judgement, you’ll confront the the common, yet invisible barriers of guardedness and “fear of getting it wrong” that stop authentic engagement around inclusion efforts. Be inspired to champion inclusion efforts to improve the sense of belonging and therefore well-being of those in marginalized groups.
Discover an innovative approach that uses powerful frameworks that illuminate overlooked gaps and fuels inclusivity through genuine emotional connection. Hear stories of lived experience from a 2SLGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, trauma survivor that humanize the importance of belonging in the workplace. Resources will be made available after the workshop to measure engagement levels around inclusion and progress made going forward.
