Since our goal is to increase empathy and boost cultural awareness, allyship is completely aligned with our vision at The Generational View. 

To develop understanding and awareness that equips us to ally effectively, we have to have these crucial conversations that lead to learning and empathy. 

So I thought I’d share with you some key takeaways from my allyship training. You can also learn more about developing empathy here in my expert interview with Workplace Empathy Consultant Liesel Mindrebo Mertes. 

We offer allyship training to organizations as well.  If your organization could benefit from it, email us at [email protected].
