276 - Challenges and triumphs in creating anti-racist environments with Letesia Gibson


Listen Later

Everyone wants to feel like they belong - to places, purpose and people. But how many workplaces can say that they are truly inclusive and anti-racist places that people choose to belong?

That is where Letesia Gibson comes in. As a navigator of systemic world views on issues such as race and misogyny, her work exists in the sphere of unlearning, helping organisations to rebuild themselves as places of belonging - for everyone.

Letesia introduces us to a new language with which to embrace the intricacies of honest conversations, the tools to embed habits of belonging, and how we can start changing the narrative of the norm.

Find out about:

  • The work of Letesia’s behaviour change agency New Ways, and their approach to building inclusive, anti-racist workplaces
  • How to recognise and navigate the role of shame in organizations
  • How to embed habits of belonging in organisations
  • The importance of understanding our triggers, to move from shame to acceptance
  • How we can design workshops that consider the many nuances of inclusivity
  • The importance of having a shared language and toolkit to initiate organisational change
