2022 BN360 Microagressions: Not so Small Afterall
Wednesday, July 13, 2022 (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM) (EDT)
Description
Could you be sabotaging connections without realizing it?
Imagine you are attending a networking function, meeting a new client, or interacting with a colleague. What if you insult or belittle them? Would this surprise you?
Microaggressions are the everyday, subtle, intentional — and oftentimes unintentional — interactions or behaviors that communicate some sort of bias toward historically marginalized groups.
If you commit a microaggression, you need to be more aware of your biases and the impact that they have on others. To be an ally, you need to put in some work.
Join us on July 13th for an interactive workshop that clarifies the what, why, and how of microaggressions
