I am excited to share that I will be co-facilitating a workshop on "Disrupting Harmful Narratives" during the WomenLift Health Global Conference in Tanzania 6-8 April. Join our workshop on April 7th. Organizations perpetuate harmful narratives which disproportionately disadvantage women. Disrupting harmful narratives is gender transformational. These narratives include: 👉 Women are too emotional. What if leadership embraced emotion? 👉 Women don't ask, you must negotiate, for salary or promotion. What if we didn’t have to negotiate? 👉 Conflict is negative and should be avoided. What if we saw conflict as an opportunity and opened ourselves to different perspectives? 👉 You must be authentically a woman or authentically a leader, but you cannot be both. Women face a double-bind dilemma which forces them to choose between acting like a ‘woman’ or acting like a ‘leader'. What if we didn’t have to choose? 👉 You have imposter syndrome; calling out women women for doubting their accomplishments, when these feelings are a result of systemic bias and exclusion. What if we stopped telling ourselves this? What if we called out the system? Come join us as we unpack these narratives in small groups.
