Today’s workplace is rapidly changing. Social media, the global pandemic, and a host of other factors have changed how we communicate, interact, and collaborate. Years ago, we’d say things like “don’t talk about religion or politics at work.” And it might have been possible for people to go their whole careers without bringing critical aspects of their identities to the workplace.
Those days are gone. How we engage online is a critical part of our personal and professional lives, and as conversations we have there evolve it’s key to engage authentically. Join Daisy Lovelace in this course as she shows you the tools to have productive, enriching conversations—ones that prompt understanding and inclusion.
