CAN-TECH Law Fall Conference: RSVP How to Tackle Micro-Inequities as Lawyers |
Event Survey
Due to the nature of this session, and to assist with facilitation, there is a limit to participation. We are asking that you RSVP in order to be able to participate.
CanTech invites you to join us for a training session on micro-inequities. In our profession, diversity, equity and inclusion are part of everything we do. Retention of diverse talent in the legal industry, and particularly lawyers specializing in technology matters, has been top of mind for many organizations. We want everyone to learn what it takes to create an inclusive culture and to understand how to recognize unhelpful behaviours in ourselves and others. No one is perfect: we all trip up and say something we regret or later feel was inappropriate, and many may have been on the receiving end of these behaviours. During this session, we will walk through a series of scenarios and discuss how to identify and challenge these behaviours.
Topics
- What are micro-inequities?
- Why do they have such an impact?
- How to avoid exhibiting these behaviours
- How to confront these behaviours in ourselves and others
