The term antiracism often evokes negative reactions because it suggests a binary of either being a racist or antiracist. Antiracism is the active process of identifying, addressing, or eliminating policies, practices, procedures, systems, structures, traditions, and norms that advance or maintain oppressive barriers for historically minoritized and marginalized individuals and communities. Often confused with racial justice, antiracism is the process that results in racial justice outcomes. Understanding the process of inputs, outputs, and outcomes or antiracism is critical to advancing and maintaining equity for all.

In this training, we will discover, identify, understand, and execute thought processes and behaviors that foster a culture of Belonging in our organizations.<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee><\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<ul><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Define and practically apply the concept of Belonging<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Explore the impact of our identities on our sense of Belonging<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Develop competencies to create Psychological Safety on the journey to Belonging<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Customize and craft personal and professional Belonging practices<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/ul>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee><\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>Sessions<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>Belonging 101 \u2013 Introduction to Belonging (1 hr)<!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->Belonging is a complex term that has different meanings for different people. The interconnectedness of its social, emotional, and physical concepts can be difficult to identify. Yet, we know that shared emotions connect people to objects and places, and shared sentiments bring people together and foster greater satisfaction and well-being. This session introduces participants to belongingness and how belongingness serves as a long-term outcome that promotes and sustains inclusion.<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>In-Group\/Out-Group Identities (1 hr)<!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->In-group favoritism and out-group ostracization have profound effects on Belongingness. While each of us has intersectional identities, our identity narratives reflect who we believe we are and who we desire to be. These narratives also connect us to or separate us from others who do not align with our identities. There are emotional investments in belonging and being attached to particular places, spaces, objects, and social commonalities, and the identity we attribute to or desire for these. This session introduces participants to in-group\/out-group identities and how to leverage these identities to foster Belongingness.<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>Psychological Safety (1.5 hr)<!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->Belonging and the need to belong or be connected with others is recognized as a fundamental human need, drive, and desire akin to food and water. In the workplace, we see that one of the critical factors in Belonging is psychological safety. When people feel that they can participate, learn, and grow in an organization, they become psychologically safe, which leads to a strong feeling of Belongingness. This session introduces participants to the concept of psychological safety in the workplace and how it promotes Belongingness.<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>Creating a Culture of Belongingness (1.5 hr)<!\u2013- [et_pb_br_holder] -\u2013><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->The power to create belonging rests with each of us.

However, the scope of emotional intelligence is wider. Inclusive leaders rank higher in emotional intelligence. In fact, research contends EQ it is considered the most important skill for a leader to possess (Landry, 2019). Emotional Intelligence is being able to control our emotions and the emotions of others.  Being able to lead with emotional intelligence is a learned behavior. Emotions at work are heightened by overlapping world challenges particularly for underrepresented populations.  The session will provide practices on how to lead with an emotionally intelligent (EQ) mindset. This EQ mindset shift will challenge our viewpoint as leaders and open space for belonging.<\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee> <\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!--\n\n<ul><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->\t<\/p>\n<li>Understanding the concepts of implicit bias and its relationship to stereotyping, micro-inequities and \u201cthe isms.\u201d<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Understanding the impact that implicit bias and its relatives can have in personal as well as organizational dynamics.<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Having the tools and processes to address and mitigate unconscious bias in your personal life as well as in your organization<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->  <\/p>\n<li>Leaving with helpful ideas and next steps to take and commit to action.<\/li>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/ul>\n<p>&#8211;><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/div>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee><a href=\"#training-top\">Back to Top<\/a><\/pee>[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.11&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.10&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; hr&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.10&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<style><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->hr.divider { <!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    height: 0;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-top: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-top: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->    margin-bottom: 20px;<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] -->}<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/style>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<hr class=\"divider\">[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.11&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.10&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_code admin_label=&#8221;Code &#8211; Micro-Aggressions&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.10&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div id=\"micro-aggression\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-bottom:15px;\">Micro-Aggression<\/h2>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee>As overt acts of racism are continually popping up on headlines and going viral, it is important to remember that not all acts of prejudice are as loud and obvious.

Often confused with antiracism, antiracism is a process that leads to racial equity that advances and supports racial justice. While these terms are used interchangeably, each describe a separate process, output, or outcome.

It emphasizes that leaders be attentive to the concerns of their followers, care for them, and nurture them. A Servant Leader puts their followers first and helps them to develop their full potential. More so, the Servant Leader exemplifies ethical behavior, shifting control to those who are being led. This counterintuitive leadership practice confounds some but has been proven to enhance worker productivity, organizational growth, and societal impact.
