Shift Your Power: Advancing from Transactional Practices to Transformational Progress
Four sessions held virtually:
Tuesdays 10:30 – 12:00 ET
February 21, 2023 – March 14, 2023
“Shift Your Power: Advancing from Transactional Practices to Progress” is a guided series to inspire participants to reevaluate, reallocate and reimagine power to focus on the mission, vision, and alignment of the those most impacted by historic and current power imbalance. Sessions will offer clear connections between dimensions of power and strategies to begin intentionally shifting power for more equitable outcomes.
These human-centered conversations will help participants identify and deconstruct inequitable mental models, while receiving tools to achieve more equitable outcomes. Participants will dig into practical case studies, hear from subject matter experts, and have an opportunity to share their own experiences with peer to peer support.
