Explore critical DEI concepts necessary to lead best in today’s environment.

With the growing need to develop deeper expertise in understanding critical DEI concepts necessary to lead best in today’s environment, DEI specialist and trainer, Tekoa Pouerie, will take us through elements from her Erase the Lines™ training, which offers an understanding of the automatic association people make between groups of people and stereotypes about those groups. She’ll show how differences can have significant influence in interactions between individuals and how it can negatively impact decisions and results. Pouerie will also share her own insights from working with companies, organizations, and agencies around the world, providing strategies to take back to the workplace – or clients – to help enhance our own DEI efforts.
