The Inclusion Committee is inviting all active volunteers and staff to join for a training to help you foster an even more welcoming, inclusive environment at your events and meetings.
You will learn valuable skills and strategies for fostering respectful interaction and how to be more inclusive in your event planning and meeting facilitation.
These skills will help you engage a wider range of people, bring about more productive meetings and allow you to be part of developing a more welcoming and inclusive environment for all at iMasons.
Testimonial:
I was looking for a fresh perspective regarding DEI and your perspective was quite refreshing, simple, and honest. I noted your definitions of Diversity and Inclusion and shared them with the CCIM Institute. In addition. I have very helpful ideas on how to run a meeting and get everyone involved which include a full page of valuable notes that I will frequently refer to – before going into or running any new or recurring meetings.
-Sharon Carz, CCIM Executive Vice President
