D.E.I-CARE: How To Build Compassion and Achieve Belonging

A Talk by Liza Wisner (she/they/y'all) and Marsha Ross-Jackson

About this Talk

Do you really care? Today, organizations are focused on creating a culture of belonging. They've created diversity statements, established employee resource groups, hired diverse talent, and invited diverse employees to tables where decisions are being made. Yet, many employees are still reluctant to bring their whole selves to work — still not feeling as though they truly belong. Why is this? What is missing?

Join Marsha Ross-Jackson from the award-winning DEI publisher, SunShower Learning, as she presents the ICARE framework (Intention, Curiosity, Authenticity, Reflection and Empathy) and why DEI efforts are not enough to create a culture of belonging. By adding ICARE to your DEI strategies, you can truly experience the benefits of having a diverse workforce.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • How to apply the ICARE framework to your existing DEI efforts
  • Strategies to create a culture of compassion that builds trust and fosters belonging
  • Tools to increase engagement, improve performance, and drive organization success
