John I. Haas, Inc.’s Post

As part of my committment to help vets and veterinary nurses to experience career fulfilment with more ease, so that we can bring our best to our clients and their pets, I have completed the incredible leadership program with OneofMany, called Lead the Change. I am now training as a coach so that I can share these powerful tools that I have learned with the wider veterinary community, as part of this wider vision. There are fellow vets and coaches (as well as women from many other industries) with me here today, who can see this co-creative potential of women. I believe that when we work together, collaboratively and openly, we can not only work with more joy and ease but synergistically to create powerful and exciting change. However, I am curious to know what you think? #onewomanconference #oneofmany #leadership #collaboration

This post is such a great reminder that even with exceptional work and great intentions DEI conversations do not go productively automatically. Have your teams ever had formal training on how to have DEI conversations? With boundaries, structure, etc.? Developing your team's Equity Fluency (skill in engaging in DEI work), is key to productive DEI conversations. When we are asked to develop or deliver training plans for organizations we follow our Equity Fluency skill building system for this very reason. Bringing in experts brings up conversation. Be careful about hosting un-facilitated DEI conversations on teams until the teams have been trained how to structure and have those conversations together. ---------------------------------------- learn more at iicfirm.com DEI Training Plans | Equity Fluency Skill Building | E-Learning | Facilitation

🌿 Embracing Change and Challenging Conversations ✨ At P+G Built Solutions, we understand that growth—both personal and professional—often comes from engaging in challenging conversations. That's why we are proud to spotlight a powerful moment of learning and dialogue spearheaded by Laura Concannon and Diana Beeson, as they come together to organize a Race2Dinner event. 🔍💬 This initiative, inspired by the groundbreaking book "White Women: Everything You Already Know About Your Own Racism and How to Do Better" by Regina Jackson and Saira Rao, seeks to dismantle the barriers of racial biases and encourage open, transformative discussions. Laura and Diana's commitment to creating a space for honest dialogue mirrors our firm's dedication to fostering an inclusive environment where every voice is heard, and every perspective is valued. 🌱 As we continue to navigate our journey towards understanding and allyship, we are reminded of the power of coming together, learning from one another, and making meaningful strides towards equity and inclusion. 📖 Whether it's through reading enlightening books, participating in Race2Dinner discussions, or implementing inclusive practices within our firm, every step we take is a step towards a more understanding and equitable world. 🤝 Join us in embracing this journey.

Feminist Book Club celebrated its 5th birthday in July with an announcement (we’re transitioning into a co-op!) and a call for help (we were robbed 4 times…). It’s been a very tumultuous few months to say the least. While there are a few major changes ahead for Feminist Book Club, who we are, what we do, and why it matters will never change: Feminist Book Club uses literature as a launchpad to have difficult conversations. Our community is the heart of our mission, holding space for those conversations to organically and safely happen. We provide thoughtful content and exceptional book recommendations to help you diversify your bookshelf and read your values. Feminist Book Club is an organization that truly puts people over profit, so you can feel good supporting us with your dollars. We don’t just talk the talk, we walk the walk and put our money where our mouth is. In order to stay truly aligned with our mission, I have decided to hand over the Feminist Book Club brand to our team of staff and contributors. We have begun the process of transitioning into a worker-owned co-operative. This joint ownership will benefit everyone because our community will know that the leadership is intersectional and from a diverse array of personal and professional backgrounds, so we’ll be less likely to overlook an issue in our community. And if we do, we’ll be better equipped to work towards restoring trust. One thing I know for sure: more voices and more experiences make an organization stronger. I look forward to deepening our work with this team. Read more on our blog: https://lnkd.in/gE7Su_aQ

Our studio is leading the shift in the way organizations are led. 💜 Over the past seven years, we've utilized a licensed Business Therapist. While this concept is relatively new, the goal is to help owners and managers mitigate their biases and miscommunications that impact the culture they've created and the structure of their operations. In 2022, Kathryn wrote an article that was featured on the Women Business Owners Enterprise Council to share all about its benefits: https://lnkd.in/e8yztk9i We believe that advocacy means change for the better. Let's continue to make change and keep breaking those barriers. #ExecutiveLeadership #Change #BusinessDevelopment
