Overview:
When considering identity, especially the various identities that may or may not be represented within your organization, it's essential to recognize that everyone has multiple identities. Intersectionality is a term and concept coined to describe the interconnected and overlapping nature of social identities. In this webinar, SGO Co-Founder Felicia Jadczak will review various social identity groups, define intersectionality, and discuss how we can consider multiple and intersecting identities within the workplace.
Learning Goals:
- Discuss what intersectionality is and how it applies to individuals within the workplace
- Recognize how identity, privilege, and difference impact how we perceive others and how they perceive us
- Reflect on individual intersectional identities
