Have you ever been told (or said!) that “It’s not polite to talk about race” or “We avoid those topics in order to keep the peace”? Or perhaps you have found yourself in the midst of such a conversation, and suddenly, things get sticky and you begin to feel a great deal of discomfort. What would be different if you had the skill to engage in difficult conversations? What would you experience if you had the chance to practice working through this discomfort? Join Dr. Liza Talusan for an interactive experience as you learn why having difficult conversations is important; how to have these skillfully; and how to manage situations when they do not go exactly as you had planned.

LEARNING GOALS

Participants will:

• Explore why it is critical to engage in DEI focused topics
• Understand where discomfort comes from, how to best work through this and better manage situations in the moment
• Practice using new skills

AUDIENCE

All individuals and teams who want to improve their learning and need some help getting there.
