Microaggressions in the Workplace with ModelExpand | Online

About this event

What are microaggressions? How do they show up in the workplace?

Even coworkers and leaders with the best of intentions don’t always see microaggressions and how they contribute to an environment that can lead to people feeling like they don’t belong and ultimately, high attrition rates. While microaggressions have become a buzzword in today’s diversity and inclusion discussions, they have a real impact on employee experience. Our panelists will demystify the buzzword and provide tactics on how to watch for and deal with this very real reality.

• What are microaggressions? How are microaggressions connected to broader systemic oppression?
• What should managers do if they witness a microaggression?
