Description

Leadership for Diversity Inclusion:

A One-Day Workshop

  • Interact in a positive, high energy hands-on approach
  • Identify and affirm the rich layers of diversity in the group
  • Understand the impact of oppressive behaviors and attitudes on oneself and others
  • Practice practical interpersonal skills that empower effective leaders and allies
  • Promote the creation of a more inclusive environment in which everyone wants to belong.


    This is not “just another diversity workshop,” this is a campus-wide program to promote community building. In NCBI, we have a heart for reaching out to others and a commitment to our own life-long learning. We are a supportive and inclusive campus community.

*Please note that those registering for a workshop must be committed to attend the full day workshop.

“Controversial Issues Process”

Workshop

  • Provides a specific NCBI approach for effectively working through interpersonal, group, organizational, or social disagreements or conflicts
  • Teaches useful skills for addressing potentially divisive situations that can move everyone forward
  • Highly interactive as trained facilitators walk the group through a structured process on a current point of disagreement among the group members
  • Participants learn to articulate their perspective in ways others can hear
  • To listen effectively to alternative positions
  • And, to work toward common ground

ü **Participants must be able to attend the full 4-hour workshop.

ü Refreshments are provided.

All workshops are facilitated by UNI members who have completed three days of training and are certified by the National Coalition Building Institute (ncbi.org).
