2018-19 Positive Links Speaker Series: Stephanie J. Creary

On January 29, 2019, Stephanie J. Creary will present “Creating More Inclusive Workplaces in an Era of Discord – The Power of Helping Across Differences.”

Many of us want to work in organizations that enable us to draw on our unique perspectives to contribute and become our best work selves. Yet, sometimes our differences can make us feel uncomfortable, which can challenge our ability to engage with one another in healthy and productive ways. In this presentation, Creary will share a tool that she has developed from her research on multiple identities and helping at work that is designed to help people build more effective relationships across difference at work. The audience will have the opportunity to use the tool in real-time to create their own positive paths for making one particular work relationship across difference more effective.
