Who this is for: Men who want to shape a more inclusive & equitable leadership culture. *Registrations must meet this criteria to be accepted.
This 90-minute workshop invites men into a deeper practice of inclusive leadership by focusing on two underdeveloped but essential skills: listening and holding space. In a world where too many conversations are dominated, dismissed, or deflected, this session offers a space to slow down, speak honestly, and hear each other out with clarity, humility, and presence.
Led by Dr. Anthony Giannoumis (keynote speaker and inclusion strategist) and co-facilitated by Bridget Price, the session uses live storytelling, high-impact activities, and peer reflection to uncover how we show up for others and what gets in the way. You'll walk away with real skills, not just good intentions.
