Peacock Hall, Second Floor
Every single person in an organization has the power to make someone want to stay or leave. This occurs through how we treat each other. Inclusive behaviors are actions that result in others feeling valued, respected, seen, and heard. Allyship is one form of an inclusive behavior. Allyship doesn’t always get a good rep, but that is because people often use it as a title and forget that it is a verb. During this session, Sertrice Shipley, founder of the consulting firm Plan to Action, will share research, best practices, and examples of how to encourage ally partnerships in organizations that result in meaningful impact.
