Corporate workshops

We offer a variety of trainings for organizations on inclusion and accessibility. Our interactive trainings are personalized to the needs of your organization and staff. Anuradha has developed these trainings to open the discussion for thoughtful dialogue and communication. Each session has been designed to facilitate longer term change but also provides practical, actionable strategies that can be applied within the short term.

What we can do for you

All of our trainings can be adapted for in-person (UK) or virtual session. We can offer a short 45 minute session upto a half day session on each of these trainings. 

Current Training Topics:

• Accessibility at Any Budget
• Advocating for Neurodiversity in the Workplace
• Creating a Client Care Strategy that is Accessible and Inclusive
• Unconscious Bias - Training Series

'Anuradha is an excellent facilitator and the training was both accessible and practical. The thing I believe will be most useful to companies taking Accessibility at Any Budget training is that each participant will get something very personal and very useful out of it. My team came away with great ideas that we could implement immediately.'

- Sarah Sayles, Gila Watershed Partnership

Unconscious Bias Training - series of 6 sessions

 We'll be recording the call and sending out the recording. And we'll have auto-generated closed captioning available during the call. I do my best to make the space interactive and accessible as we go through the presentation. If you have specific access needs, let me know ahead of time.

Each interactive session will include pre-work, a 90-minute training, and post-work for implementation after the session. Additionally, we will conduct a short survey for staff to assess their understanding and baseline for DEIA topics.
 
The overall session structure has been created using the natural cycle of learning framework from 4MAT to increase cognition and implementation of the concepts and practices covered in each session as well as the entire series. The 4MAT framework and Anuradha’s mastery of it, brings together an understanding and accommodation of differences in perception, processing, learning styles, and integrating left/right brain thinking – meeting the participants where they are and support them in their learning journey.
 
 
Session 1: How Unconscious Bias Creates Unsafe Space for Non-White People
 
Summary: In this session we talk about unconscious bias, its origins, and how it shows up in day-to-day interactions within an organization. Outcomes: Staff have basic tools and language to improve their own awareness and ways to avoid defensive reactions that close off communications and create an unsafe environment. An understanding of emotional maturity when facing conflict and difference.
 
Session 2: Understanding Dominant Culture and Power Dynamics in the Workplace 
 
Summary: We will dig deeper into the ways unconscious bias and power dynamics shape our workplace interactions and the ways we communicate both interpersonally and systemically. We will look at build the awareness around seeing power imbalances and learning the skills to sit with discomfort in conflict, relate across difference, and disrupt power dynamics as they show up. Outcomes: Staff will build on their skills of awareness of interpersonal and systemic dynamics, learning how to notice and disrupt the ways these dynamics operate in the workplace. We will continue to develop the awareness and skills to necessary to relate across difference. 
 
Session 3: Recognizing and Honouring Cultural, Religious, and Racial Differences 
 
Summary: Deepening the conversation of unconscious bias, we explore the vast scope of cultural, religious, and racial differences and how a lack of awareness creates a sense that non-dominant staff member culture is unimportant or worse, doesn’t exist. Outcomes: Build empathy and self-awareness around difference in order to motivate inclusive behaviours and attitudes. Participants will develop the willingness and skills of stilling with discomfort.
 
Session 4: Developing Inclusive and Transparent Communication
 
Summary: With a new awareness of unconscious bias and cultural, religious and racial differences, we’ll look at using inclusive language in both day-to-day office conversations, marketing materials, and where inclusive language might be missing. Outcomes: Encourage staff communication and behaviour to be more inclusive. Increased curiosity and empathy around inclusive internal and external communication.
 
Session 5: Fostering a Supportive Environment
 
Summary: In this session, we will explore how an awareness of biases and respect for cultural, religious, racial differences fosters a team environment that naturally leads to more motivation and transparency in the work environment. Outcomes: An increased ability to identify power imbalances to create true repair, that builds safety in organizational culture. Incorporation of the framework of apology and repair to promote transparency and self-awareness internally and externally.
 
Session 6: Putting it All Together
 
Summary: This session gives participants a chance to review and practice key concepts discussed in the series. We will discuss how effectively the participants have been able to apply the practices covered. This gives space for necessary analysis and support. Outcomes: A safer atmosphere to grow key skills around self-awareness, behaviours, and communication. Increased confidence in the individual and organizational ability to cultivate racial equity, diversity, and inclusion.

DEI aware



A cursory thought to inclusion and accessibility is no longer an option for an organization operating in our current paradigm.




Instead of waiting months or years to address inequity, hierarchy, power imbalance, exclusion, and capitalism, why not build this into your business right from the get go?

Along side of doing the work of delivering your company's mission, you probably have the desire to be ethical, to give back to your community, to hold a vision of business beyond profits and capitalism, as well as to create a dynamic and inclusive place at work and beyond.

That's a tall order, even with all of the passions that business owners in this stage have!
