Being your Best Self Webinar Series
The first webinar in our three-part series will focus on how our mindsets and behaviors related to inclusion and diversity affect the interactions we have with others and can make or break relationships and teams. During this webinar, we will:
- Build common language about inclusion, diversity and equity and their role in how we interact and partner with others.
- Discuss the differences that make a difference in our personal and professional lives and how they impact us and our partnerships.
- Share competencies for interaction that improve collaboration, effectiveness and individual, team and organizational performance.
This webinar will be facilitated by Fred Miller and Judith Katz, two trailblazers in the field of inclusion, diversity, and personal and professional development. They are authors of several books, including Be Big (2008), which explores how we bring our full selves to our lives and work, and Safe Enough to Soar (2018), which introduces the concept of interaction safety.
We hope you will join us for this free October webinar and the others later this winter:

About this webinar series
The Centre for Human Relations and Community Studies is offering two transformational workshops in 2022:
Human Interaction Laboratory (HI Lab)
2022 Dates TBD
A foundational workshop designed to enhance your understanding of how you show up and interact in order to improve your personal and professional effectiveness
Developing the Personal and Organizational Self (D/OPS)
2022 Dates TBD
An advanced workshop designed to build greater self-knowledge and fluency in using boundaries and choice to be more of the person you want to be at work, at home, and in the world
This FREE, three-part webinar series is designed to give you a taste of a few of the concepts and frameworks that will be explored more fully in both of these growth and development workshops. Whether you attend HI Lab OR D/OPS, you will be exploring concepts related to interactions, identity, and self-awareness, all of which are critical to growth and development
