Led by Vince Greer and Marissiko Wheaton-Greer of Greer Consulting, the workshops will explore common challenges and barriers specific to our current political landscape. The workshop will also feature:
• Discussion of important terminology
• Methods of listening and reflection
• Discussion-based vignettes
• An open Q & A session
• Additional resources and support
Come and learn how to live Pitzer values in challenging times. We hope to see you there!
