The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement Learning Center
Leadership Accelerator: Effective Strategies to Make DEI Stick
- Registration Closed
A four-hour accelerated course for leaders working towards an equitable and just profession.
The animal welfare field needs to change, and you play a crucial role in forging the path toward more diverse, equitable, and inclusive organizations. It can feel overwhelming and confusing. Where do we begin the journey? How do we know if we’re making progress? How do we get staff buy-in?
In this executive level leadership online class, you will work together as a cohort of committed leaders. Participants will engage in self-reflection, explore a roadmap for making DEI a strategic goal in your organization, and identify core skills leaders need to model.
While we recognize the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion from multiple levels of an organization, this course is specifically designed to support senior leaders, including executives, C-level staff, directors of municipal animal services, and board members.
Presenters:
- Jasmin M. Robinson, Director of DEI Initiatives, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement
- Maria Morukian, Founder & President, MSM Global Consulting
