Brews & Business: Everyday Deviating: Cultivating Inclusive Practices – January 2020
You may have heard people talking about pronouns, gender identity and inclusion. It’s time we gain a better understanding of what those words refer to, how this knowledge can help our businesses and our everyday lives.
• Think deeply about personal experiences related to difference and belonging
• Explore how norms – what counts as normal in our everyday practices – can limit efforts to be more inclusive of difference
• Introduces conversations about gender and sexuality powerfully
• Consider ways to deviate from the norm in order to practice DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) personally, artistically, and professionally
• Interrogate norms and assumptions that impact diversity and inclusion work, personal reflection, vulnerability, gender and sexuality
