During the Coronavirus &amp; Social Injustice Learning Circle on June 15, 50 people gathered to discuss the implications of the Black Lives Matter movement in the workplace. Specifically, how L&amp;D should respond. From multiple chat comments during the session, there is a clear struggle to find the right way to talk about race and racism in the workplace. After a decades-long narrative about meritocracy, we are forced to confront the role of race, positive and negative stereotypes (white privilege) play in hiring, developing, and promoting employees. The conversation is fraught with challenges.

During the Coronavirus &amp; Social Injustice Learning Circle on June 15, 50 people gathered to discuss the implications of the Black Lives Matter movement in the workplace. Specifically, the way in which L&amp;D should respond. From multiple chat comments during the session, there is a clear struggle to find the right way to talk about race and racism in the workplace. After decades-long narrative about meritocracy, we are forced to confront the role of race, positive and negative stereotypes (white privilege) play in hiring, developing, and promoting employees. The conversation is fraught with challenges.

What we will explore together :

During this session, we'll explore those difficult topics and strategies L&amp;D may apply to navigate an incredibly challenging topic.

Session Focus: How should L&amp;D respond? - COVID-19 &amp; Social Injustice
ELE's Idea Exchange: Collaborate your insights online with your peers <a href="https://www.learningexecutive.com/idea-xch/idea-xch-category/engagement-and-culture/unpacking-the-inter-connection-between-covid-19-social-injustice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
Ideation: Unpacking the inter-connection between Coronavirus and Social Injustice

During this highly interactive group discussion, Nick Allen engages in a highly interactive discussion about COVID-19 and Social Injustice:

We have been forging ahead on a ‘return to workplace’ strategy and have made great progress on that front as an ELE cohort over the past few months. Over the past 2 weeks, the focus of Social Injustice has taken center stage in a very big way. Albeit a much needed and long overdue focus, the timing and the intensity of this topic are interesting, to say the least, and how these two forces should or should not come together over the coming months.
<blockquote>
<ol>
 	<li>How will social justice and confronting systemic racism intersect with prior Diversity &amp; Inclusion initiatives?</li>
 	<li>How will L&amp;D empower and enable employees to speak up and to listen?</li>
 	<li>Where are the interconnection points between your COVID-19 return-to-work &amp; evolving Social Justice strategies?</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
Due to interest in L&amp;D during this pandemic and an overwhelming amount of participants, we are holding a sixth free Virtual Cohort to discuss COVID-19 and how companies are reacting with new questions and open the floor to new discussion.
