Event Description
Title
From Oppression to Leadership - A Liberation Methodology
Presenter
Carolina Castañeda del Rio, Founder and President, Evolve International Consulting
Language, relationships, and interactions knit the fabric of society. This session is a result of deep interviews conducted with leaders with at least two identified oppressed identities, who have achieved high levels of leadership and/or financial success. This insightful session will inspire participants to analyze tools and strategies that will enable them to move beyond internalized oppression and build effective alliances. Participants will also identify practical ways in which they can become the agents of change in removing systemic barriers for others to thrive. After the session, participants will be offered the opportunity to be a part of the technology of liberation, and receive a coaching session at a discounted rate.
Learning objectives
Participants will understand the technology of liberation that will catalyze leadership development, the creation of alliances, and the advancement of goals and causes that are relevant to them, through specific changes in their relationships with themselves and others.
Target Audience
Emerging and experienced leaders who are a part of at least one underrepresented community, especially: Latinx, immigrants, generational poverty, women, people of color.
