Be a Better Ally

As we continue to prioritize diversity and inclusion in the workplace, the term allyship is tossed around a lot. But what does it actually mean (and not mean) to be an ally? Many well-intentioned professionals would like to be allies but they’re not sure how. They have concerns about overstepping or misreading situational cues. Or, they feel uncomfortable having conversations about what support looks like to others.

Regardless of your background, role or level, you can be an ally. In this interactive discussion, you’ll learn how. We will:

Debunk some of the myths around allyship
Explore common challenging scenarios in breakout sessions and strategize how to show up as an ally in each one
Discuss key strategies and action steps to serve as allies to others.
