Together, we will explore how we can engage in difficult conversations with ourselves and others about issues related to justice and equity. We'll identify three key questions that unlock cognitive, emotional, and behavioral blocks and offer possibilities for finding our power during challenging times.
This year’s Leadership Institute workshop is open to all conference attendees. All incoming, standing, and outgoing leaders of ARLIS/NA constituent groups are encouraged to participate if they are attending the conference.
The workshop will be facilitated by
