Mastering Diversity Training & Facilitation
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at StirFry Seminars & Consulting
(see times)
Workshop Description:
Too often we are afraid to begin a conversation about race and racism because we have had a bad experience or feel that we will say something wrong or hurtful. This workshop is particularly exciting and satisfying because it allows everyone the opportunity to practice talking to someone who is different from themselves in a compassionate and honest way. Participants will learn that they are not alone in their fears and that all of us lack a “model†of how to begin this type of conversation. The most important ingredient is our sincerity and our willingness to learn and understand each other. We will practice sharing with one another through use of film, small group interactions, role plays and personal stories.
Participants will learn:
To notice the intent of our communications on other cultures and its impact
Ways to respond compassionately and openly about diversity issues
How to listen mindfully and with awareness
How personal stories can affect our perceptions and attitudes
Ways to create a sense of community through dialogue and stories
How to work with conflict and hurt feelings when diversity issues are involved
