Business Support Series: The Bridge Beyond Binary
Business Support Series
The Business Support Webinar Series will explore timely topics with industry experts to provide key insights and answers on the best ways to succeed as a business. Hosted by the Halifax Chamber of Commerce, this series will feature a wide range of topics on how to survive and thrive.
THE BRIDGE BEYOND BINARY:
A 2021 bias check to enhance your business practice, service delivery and even make you a better human!
Is your knowledge around gender identity limiting your ability to inspire welcoming and inclusive space for all your customers, suppliers and employees?
Is your gap in knowledge hurting your business and limiting your professional success?
Do you have the tools and confidence to implement intentional, beyond binary practices that will elevate your leadership skills; shifting your service delivery beyond inclusion theatre?
Join Cynthia Sweeney, Consultant and Educator with Simply Good Form for an engaging hour unpacking the barriers and biases embedded in our society around gender identity and sexual orientation.
In the words of Maya Angelou, 'People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'
We're about bridging uncomfortable conversations and empowering you with the tools needed to become more confident and intentional in your everyday professional and personal practices.
Change the narrative around you with intention.
