Stop Watering the Leaves of DEI&B, Treat the Roots

Anthony will discuss the value of facilitation and focusing on root issues as the most impactful approach to influencing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B) culture in organizations. He will discuss the need to define culture, determine if there is a culture problem, and uncover the roots of the problem before determining sustainable solutions. He will highlight importance of distinguishing between collective regard and representative regard, the actual words and feelings of stakeholders, the difference between root issues and symptoms, the six root issues that define DEI&B of every organization, why training has minimal impact on change without addressing root issues first, and much more. It will be a lively, interactive discussion.
