Engineer Inclusion offers monthly free-to-access live discussion panels on various diversity, equity, and inclusion topics. The series was born out of interesting conversations with colleagues that we thought would be great learning opportunities for others.
The purpose of the live "What Is...?" talk series is to bring clarity, humanity, and strategies to a particular topic.
What is Accent Bias?
Accent bias is an unwarranted prejudice toward others based on the sound of their speech. This panel discussion was on Wednesday, August 24, from 12 to 1 PM CDT. Panelists were Donna Durbin, and Dr. Hoda Ehsan, with Dr. Meagan Pollock as the moderator. On this page you’ll find the event recording, plus strategies and resources.
What is workplace bullying? (And how does it relate to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging?)
Join us for an interactive panel discussion on Friday, September 23, from 12 – 1 CDT. Dr. Meagan Pollock, Engineer Inclusion founder, will have a lively conversation with three professionals who will share their expertise and experiences
What is the future of work? A panel conversation on the ‘great resignation,’ ‘quiet quitting,’ and other workplace culture-driven trends
Over the last two years, we’ve witnessed several workplace trends like the Great Resignation and Quiet Quitting. Each of these is deeply tied to workplace culture. While recent data suggests the labor market is evening out, what is the future of work? Join us for a live discussion on 10/27 where our panel of experts will discuss trends related to workplace culture.
What is nonbinary? Simple Ways to Be Inclusive of Nonbinary Colleagues
Join us on November 10 for a live interview on nonbinary identities. You’ll learn simple strategies for bringing inclusive of your nonbinary colleagues and students.
What is thriving? Strategies for helping ourselves and others flourish
As many of us start the new year with revitalized motivations and goals, a desire to thrive in the months ahead is at the heart of it. But what does it mean to thrive? We all face different challenges and barriers, yet some seem to rise above the fray ostensibly better than others. Learning to thrive amidst sometimes unideal environments is a skill we can learn. Join us for Engineer Inclusion’s first live panel of 2023 on Jan 10, where we will discuss strategies for helping ourselves and others flourish.
