In today's episode of Lean Into You, we talk with Rebecca Slaby, the Executive Director of Amazeworks. In this two part conversation we will talk about how directors can create a culture of belonging through anti-bias training. In part two, we will cover:
1) Some practical strategies for creating an anti-bias culture in your center
2) How leading this work can operate as a self-care method
3) How the desire to preserve relationships doesn't excuse accountability
4) The consequences of leading this work and how they balance with the benefits
