SUMMARY:ONLINE Author Talk: How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race with Kwame Christian
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the West Linn Public Library \nJoin bestselling author Kwame Christian as he chats about his new book How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race: Practical Tools for Necessary Change in the Workplace and Beyond. \nHow to Have Difficult Conversations About Race helps readers gain the confidence to not only talk about race\, but actually make a difference when you do. Negotiation expert Kwame Christian’s motto is: “The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations.” If we want a more equitable workplace\, and a more equitable world\, we have to talk to each other about race. But\, for so many of us\, that’s easier said than done. Many people avoid conversations about race because of fear: fear of discomfort\, damaging important relationships\, being misunderstood\, “cancelled\,” or ostracized. How to Have Difficult Conversations About Race equips you with the skills you need to make these crucial conversations easier and more productive. If you’ve ever struggled to turn that passion into persuasion\, or been too afraid to speak up at work (or outside of it)\, this talk is for you. The first step toward lasting social change is productive discussion. \nAbout The Author: Kwame Christian is a best-selling author\, lawyer\, professor\, and the Managing Director of the American Negotiation Institute. He has conducted countless specialized trainings worldwide and is a highly sought after keynote speaker. In addition\, Kwame is a business lawyer at Carlile\, Patchen & Murphy LLP and serves as a professor for The Ohio State University’s Moritz College of Law in its top-ranked dispute resolution program and Otterbein University’s MBA program. Kwame’s proudest achievement is his family. He’s married to Dr. Whitney Christian and they have two lovely sons\, Kai and Dominic. \nREGISTER HERE
