Watch ``Looking through Cultural Lenses``

How do we form connections with others who do not share our same experiences, perspectives, or view of the world? How do we get over the awkwardness of trying to grow new relationships in the workplace and with our neighbors?

In this workshop, participants will be inspired to deepen conversations, find common ground, and appreciate the rich diversity of our community through hearing about personal stories and real-life experiences.

– What influences affect how we see our world? – How do you widen the personal lens?

– How to begin those awkward conversations

Presented by Jolene Jang, Asian Inclusivity Consultant and Culture Explorer and Kevin Henry, Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Consultant. Kevin belongs to a handful of communities and social justice groups, including the Seattle NAACP. https://www.kevinphenry.com/
