Power and Privilege Workshop

This course (Leader’s Path) is delivered as part of the UN Global Compact Network Canada’s support to 50 – 30 Challenge participants in partnership with the Canadian Centre for Diversity and Inclusion. What is power and how does it manifest in the workplace? What is privilege and how can we understand its intersections at work? Using principles of self-reflection and case study exercises, this workshop aims to help leaders better understand how to use their power and privilege to advance inclusivity and break systemic barriers that prevent equity in the workplace. Participants will leave with an enhanced understanding of their own spheres of influence and the ability to start having difficult conversations about privilege in the workplace and its impact on employees, stakeholders, and your business. The workshop is intended to be informative and interactive, encouraging peer-to-peer learning and sharing. The workshop platform provides a safe and anonymous space to interact, share experiences, and best practices.
