Description

Join us for a thought-provoking presentation on the dangers of microaggressions and the crucial importance of psychological safety in the workplace. Engage and explore concrete ways you and your organizations can combat microaggressions and other subtle biases and prejudices. Microaggressions can erode trust and employee engagement, undermine productivity, and contribute to a poor work environment. Explore the nature and impact of microaggressions, as well as strategies for identifying and addressing them. Learn how creating a culture of psychological safety can help address these concerns and promote a healthy and thriving workplace culture. Psychological safety in the workplace allows employees to speak up candidly with ideas, questions and concerns, without fear of reprisal or adverse repercussions. The resulting security created by a culture that supports a safe workplace can improve performance, engagement and connection at work. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to address microaggressions and create a more inclusive, supportive, and productive work environment for all.
