Stories
Holistic Authenticity as a Means to Equity and Inclusion
We spend so much of our lives in professional spaces. To be seen as an asset to an organization, we are told to sanitize our identities, and align ourselves with the requirements of our jobs and workplaces. However, this is often at odds with organizational goals of diversity, equity and inclusion. In this talk, Dr. Waheeda Lillevik discusses changing our perspectives toward holistic authenticity, and refocusing responsibility on how we perceive individuals in our professional, as well as personal, lives.

Stephanie Horner, Assistant to the Dean
It is extremely important to me that people not “judge a book by it’s cover.” Get to know someone and learn about who they are. If everyone took a moment and thought about the things that they say or do, they would realize how those things may make someone feel. If everyone did this, the world would be a better place!
Dr. Patricia Wallace

“. . . to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
