Signature Workshops

Intentional Interventions: Moving from Bystander to Change Agent

This workshop will educate participants in practical skills for addressing various forms of injustice. In this 75-minute workshop, participants will harness the power of self-awareness, and explore the multifaceted factors that inhibit individuals from stepping forward as change agents by addressing bias, micro-aggressions, and systemic inequalities. The workshop cultivates a deeper understanding of how these issues erode organizational culture as attendees add to their toolkit ways to navigate complex interventions, employing empathy and authenticity as catalysts for change.

Timing and Pricing

This workshop can be done in 1 hour. The ideal length is 90 minutes. There is also a 3-hour workshop option that adds a case study and time to practice intervention techniques.


2. Dimensions of Identity: Understanding Unconscious Bias

This session takes participants through the journey of self-exploration, asking and answering questions we rarely explore individually, let alone with others. Participants will leave this session better understanding bias and how unconscious bias can disrupt organizational success and create barriers. This session also provides an opportunity for participants to review examples and determine if they believe the scenarios are instances of bias. This discussion-based session will not leave participants overwhelmed or bored.

Timing and Pricing

This workshop can be split out based on the needs of the organization. A 30-minute workshop is just enough time to explore what unconscious bias means. The full workshop can be done in 1 hour, but the ideal length is 90 minutes.


3. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) as a Tool to Achieve Organizational Priorities

This session will help participants consider ways to create a culture that values diversity using organization development and change models as the guide. With the use of tools such as scorecards and dashboards, the presenter will discuss driving strategic goals by demonstrating a deep commitment to building or reviving inclusive organizational cultures. This session is ideal for organizations creating or revising a DEI strategic plan.

4. Navigating Difficult Conversations

If you communicate with others, then at some point in your life you have had to face a difficult conversation. These conversations are often uncomfortable, yet they are a crucial part of accountability and productivity in all that we do. Whether you are a manager trying to gain more insights into performance management techniques, or an employee facing challenges with colleagues, your supervisor, or clients, this session will give everyone something to help that next conversation feel less difficult, more manageable, and more productive.

Timing and Pricing

This workshop can be split out based on the needs of the organization. A 1-hour workshop covers the basics of navigating difficult conversations. A 2-hour workshop covers difficult conversations and introduces ways to hold others accountable. The ideal length is 3 hours to include workshop exercises for participants to practice these skills.


5. Paint & Chat

This is a fun gathering opportunity to bring your team together to paint while offering opportunities to relax and chat with colleagues, family, or friends. Jennifer will lead the group through drawing and painting, while the host creates the atmosphere for fun and relaxation. This is a great mindfulness opportunity for your team. Group paintings (one large canvas everyone paints on) and individual paintings (each person receives a canvas to paint on) are an option.

Timing and Pricing

The ideal length is 1.5 hours to complete a painting.

Consolation required for pricing. Pricing varies depending on who is providing the supplies and the group size.


6. Unconscious Doubt

This session centers around a term coined by Jennifer McCary – unconscious doubt. This session takes unconscious bias one step further to explore how bias can have a lasting impact on those on the receiving end. Anyone can experience unconscious doubt. Freeing oneself from that doubt can propel you into a new future. Participants will be encouraged to consider how others attitudes or behaviors influenced their choices.
