Issues of diversity and inclusion can often be challenging for individuals and organizations to engage. It is critical to be prepared to respond to colleagues if resistance emerges. This workshop will help participants understand the benefit of engaging those who are resistant by exploring questions and techniques that help identify the sources of resistance. It will also examine ways to utilize the resistance as feedback for growth and refinement of D&I efforts. Attendees will leave with heightened awareness and opportunities to practice new approaches in communication and conflict resolution. This workshop is facilitated by the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities. Lunch will be provided. Please register by February 14, 2017.
