Leveraging Mindfulness to Foster Inclusivity in the Workplace
Learn how organisations can leverage mindfulness practices to foster a more inclusive environment for marginalised communities and employees.
Sarah Sung and Tawny Cortes, both BAMBA’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion team members, explore how organisations can leverage mindfulness practices to create a more inclusive environment for marginalised communities and employees.
Sarah and Tawny will highlight common occurrences in workplaces and provide you with:
✔️ Increased Self-Awareness: participants will gain a deeper understanding of their own biases and how they might unconsciously contribute to a non-inclusive environment.
✔️ Actionable toolkits: the event can equip participants with practical mindfulness exercises and tools that they can implement in their daily work lives.
✔️ Improved Communication Skills: the event can introduce mindfulness techniques for active listening and fostering empathy.
