The Culture Workshop: Exploring Our Awareness
Wednesday, October 11, 2023 — 1 PM - 5 PM (U.S. Eastern) — Online, Zoom
Co-Facilitated by Dee Washington, Annette Alfonsi and Derick Carter
Culture impacts a network’s success in ways that can be subtle and hidden, until revealed–even if the network has made positive and meaningful progress on their DEI journey.
The Culture Workshop supports groups to:
Gain a deeper understanding of the human issues that arise when two or more cultures come together.
Learn frameworks to identify common patterns and ways to break challenging cycles that perpetuate the status quo.
Develop more confidence in designing cultures of reciprocity, interconnectedness, and creativity.
Understand a basic framework for developing thriving human cultures that maximize the contributions and strengths of all its members.
The Culture Workshop fosters deep understanding of how culture impacts your network’s ability to fulfill its purpose. In this half-day session, we’ll explore experiences, and practices that help you work better together as you live into a culturally rich ecosystem that fosters belonging, innovation and forward momentum. Contact us with any questions.
Take advantage of our Facilitated Reflection Session on Wednesday, October 18, 2023 from 2 PM - 3 PM EDT—one week after your Culture Workshop!
After attending the Culture Workshop, all participants are invited to join us for a more in-depth unpacking of their experiences. This post-workshop debrief will be hosted by the workshop facilitators, and all attendees will be invited to join our online peer-to-peer community to continue the dialogues they find central to their work.
