A change is gonna co... Is here:Resient in Change


Speaker: Dr. Ashley Gaddy

May 14, 2025, at 1:00-2:00 PM ET


There has been substantial change in organizations across the nation around

diversity, equity, and inclusion. While change is normal, it is increasingly impacting

communities at a faster rate. This session will discuss the impacts of change on

organizations and how executives, leaders, and teams can be resilient and

adaptable as shifts occur. By unpacking the stages of social movements and

creating an action plan, teams will also leave with information and tools to continue

to do intentional work, get excited about the possibilities, and sustain impact. The

goal is to stay committed. Contrary to Sam Cooke's hit single, a change is not

gonna come, it's here! Let’s embrace it successfully!

Creating Engaging and Diversely-Talented Followership Teams


Speaker: Pamela McAfee

May 30, 2025, at 1:00-2:00 PM ET


Creating teams that can dynamically plan and implement organizational programs is a

key performance strategy to achieve organizational goals. Using followership principles,

developing teams can thrive in environments that typically slow in progression as

complex implementation issues takeover timelines. Team creation processes seek specific

attributes of team members to match the right people to right teams for optimal project

workflow. Diverse team development has four essential characteristics that team

members can flex-in and -out of as the teamwork evolves to implementation. This

workshop will provide opportunities to practice creating teams that demonstrate

followership acumen through intentional team-creation and teamwork.
