Ever wonder how to create a more gender-inclusive and gender-affirming workplace for everyone? Join us for our new Beyond the Binary Workshop! In this workshop, we’ll break down commonly used terminology, explore the diverse spectrum of gender identities and expressions, and challenge the binary thinking that often exists when we discuss gender.
Through interactive exercises and discussions, you’ll:
- Learn key terms and understand their nuances, ensuring respectful communication and avoiding harmful assumptions.
- Deepen your knowledge of the difference between sex and gender, explore the spectrum of gender identities, and challenge common misconceptions.
- Identify how LGBTQIA+ bias manifests in the workplace and develop strategies to combat it proactively.
- Begin to build an action plan with tangible steps to advocate for your colleagues and create an inclusive work environment.
You’ll receive 2 SHRM professional development credits for participating in this webinar.
