Program Type: Webinar

Webinars are free, 30- to 90-minute virtual events. ACE experts, campus leaders, and other voices from within and beyond higher education discuss critical questions and promising practices around a timely topic. Registrants have the opportunity to share their questions during the live event and to access the recording afterward.

This webinar features reflections from practitioners on the forthcoming brief Emotional Labor in Shared Equity Leadership Environments: Creating Emotionally Supportive Spaces. Expert panelists will discuss what emotional labor looks like in an environment where responsibility for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) leadership is broadly distributed. The emotional burden of DEI work can be minimized when leaders work in community together. Panelists will also share suggestions for how institutions can better acknowledge and support campus leaders engaged in emotional labor.
