The Umbrella Effect: Building an Unstoppable, Inclusive Culture is a fast-paced course that provides practical steps to make difficult conversations more comfortable, and explains how to harness emotional intelligence, unconscious biases, microaggressions, and much, much more.  The focus is an awareness and cooperation rather than criticism and shame, so everyone moves forward together.  Students, through active participation and collaboration, will learn how to overcome bias in inclusiveness and diversity discussions by moving from conversations led by gut instinct emotional or subconscious thought, and instead focusing on deliberately inclusive, rational, rules-based thinking and listening.  Instructed by Sher Powers; Live Online; 2 hours c.e. requested.
