Allyship in Action

Mar 9, 2019

3:30pm – 4:30pm CT

Being an “ally” is more than a label. It’s about being willing to act with and for others in pursuit of creating equity! We can start by recognizing the unearned advantages many of us receive, take responsibility and break the current patterns. We all have an equally important role in this – and by doing so, we help level the playing field by creating more inclusive and fair workplace environments.

In this class:

-Set the stage with important background information and definitions
-Explore a framework to better understand what allyship looks like in action
-Make a commitment to take actionable steps to be an effective ally and changemaker

Takeaways:
1) Build knowledge, awareness, and skill to establish or strengthen your own allyship practice
2) Specifically, support non-women colleagues to be more effective allies to women
3) Generally make a more inclusive workplace
