Experiencing microaggressions can lead to serious feelings
of doubt when it comes to self-worth, productivity, and security. What are
microaggressions and microbullying? Am I committing them? How do they impact
the person who experiences them?
In this course – which is broken into six 5-minute
blocks – speaker Noma Anderson illuminates these concepts and guides us through
purposeful reflection activities that reduce the likelihood of committing
microaggressions, ensuring a safer environment for our colleagues and clients,
and thereby facilitating more effective communication.
