The workshop brings the behaviors of inclusion to life through an experiential exercise that includes a customized scene presented by a highly trained group of improv actors. Participants identify dynamics and behaviors that have a negative impact on belonging, and strategize how to create a more inclusive environment. With those learnings in mind, each participant will have the opportunity to identify one or two actions they can take to lead more inclusively.
